The first weekend of December has been The Heritage Guild Holiday Tour of Homes since 1973! The tradition of opening historic homes for a public tour began in 1973 when our founders first opened their homes to raise money to purchase the Dulaney House and cottage and the grounds that eventually became Chestnut Square. Every year five or six homes and historic structures are decorated for Christmas and opened for the tour. The proceeds from ticket sales and an annual raffle are a major component to the ongoing operation of Chestnut Square. Take a peek at last year’s tour homes and watch the website for this year’s tour homes. Tickets will be available in late October through this website or by calling 972-562-8790. Contact us if you’d like to get involved in the tour. We have lots of volunteer opportunities including our Home Tour planning committee, docents for the tour, ticket sales and more. If you’d like to sell tickets at your place of business, call 972-562-8790. If you’d like to learn more about placing your home on the tour, call 972-562-8790.
