Tips for making the best of the
Kitchen and Home Tour

1. I purchased my ticket. Where do I go on the day of the Tour?

Start your day at any home on the Tour! Simply present the QR code from your Eventbrite ticket to the greeters at the home’s entrance. While a printed ticket is welcome, displaying the QR code on your phone is perfectly acceptable. You’ll receive a guidebook containing a “pass” at the first house you visit. This pass will be marked at each subsequent home on the Tour. After the initial check-in, you won’t need to show your ticket or QR code again.

2. Should I go to the houses in the order they’re listed in the Tour guide book?

No, you can start at any house and go in any order you choose! The Tour houses are listed in alphabetical order by street name, but please visit the homes in whatever order you prefer.

3. Can I keep my shoes on?

Unfortunately, not. At each house, everyone takes off their shoes and puts protective booties on. You will carry your shoes through the house (your official Tour bag will come in handy for this purpose) and put them back on when you leave. We will have chairs as you enter and leave, to make it easier to take your shoes off and put them back on. We strongly recommend wearing shoes that are light and easy to get on and off. We ask that you keep your booties for use at the next house. The only exceptions we make are for those in orthopedic shoes.

4. Can I touch anything in the home? Can I take any photographs while touring a
home?

No touching and no photography, please! If you see something that inspires you, it may be in the photos we include in the guidebook or listed within the resources and vendors section for each home. There also are experts in the houses who will be happy to tell you about how the houses were designed and created.

5. Can I bring my infant in a carrier?

No children under the age of 18 are allowed on the Tour. No exceptions will be made.

6. Will any food or light bites be offered at the Tour houses?

There will be a few popup shops providing food samples on site. Please consume your food outside of the house and take any trash with you (or dispose of the trash in wastebaskets provided by the popup vendors).

7. I didn’t get through all of the houses! What happens at 3pm?

We apologize to any attendee who cannot tour all of the homes within the designated time frame of 10 am to 3 pm. However, the Club must ensure that our generous homeowners are able to access their homes again after 3 pm, so guests will not be admitted into the homes after 3pm.
