Home and Art Tour
April 16, 10:30 am - 3:30 pm
The NOMA Volunteer Committee's Home and Art Tour is back for the museum's centennial year after being missed by many design and art aficionados since 2005. This year's tour features six stately Uptown homes - many opened to the public for the first time!
Put on your walking shoes and tour these historic homes along St. Charles Avenue and State Street admire their art collections. NOMA Volunteer Committee members will greet you at each home and provide historical information.
Participants are free to follow their own schedule, visiting the
six homes between 10:30 am and 3:30 pm.
Don't want to wait in line? Patron level attendees receive priority entrance at each home and a NOMA Centennial Plaque.
No matter your favorite architectural style, this tour offers it all and the art collections promise to be as eclectic as the homes.
Advance tickets: Patron, $75; NOMA Members, $25; Non-Members, $30.
All tickets (other than Patron Level) on the day of the tour, $35.
This year's event is co-chaired by Carol Hall and JoAnn Christopher.
