The Fitchburg Historical Society will offer its Annual Holiday House Tours on Saturday, December 3, 2016 from 11 am to 4 pm.<\/strong> This fundraiser will welcome visitors into twelve of Fitchburg\u2019s architecturally significant buildings, beautifully decorated for the holidays. The Fitchburg Historical Society House Tour is a popular annual fundraiser that celebrates Fitchburg\u2019s architectural heritage while helping to support the educational and preservation programs of the Fitchburg Historical Society, a 124-year old nonprofit that preserves Fitchburg\u2019s historical treasures.<\/p>\n

Some of the homes showcase architecture by Fitchburg\u2019s best known Victorian architect, Henry M. Francis. They date from the years around 1900, and represent such popular architectural styles as Art Nouveau, Queen Anne, Colonial Revival and Victorian Eclecticism.\u00a0 Many of the building interiors also include extraordinary architectural details, such as grand fireplaces, Arts and Crafts tiles, custom woodwork and stonework. For example, the Beck home features a magnificent stone staircase at its entrance, leading to an elegant wrap-around porch.<\/p>\n

In addition to seven private residences, other participating venues include: St. Francis Church, the Boulder Art Gallery, Gerry\u2019s Martel\u2019s Classic Carriages, the Fitchburg Historical Society, and the Fay Club.\u00a0 The Fay Club is a magnificent mansion designed by American architect Richard Upjohn (famous for the Trinity Church on Wall Street). It will serve as the \u201cTea Room\u201d for the day, where House Tour participants can stop for tea, coffee and desserts.<\/p>\n

Tickets for the December 3, 2016, House Tours are $20.00 each and can be purchased starting on Wednesday, November 2, at Shack\u2019s Clothing, Mill #3, Elliot\u2019s Jewelers, Homestead Primitives, Windmill Florist, the Mayor\u2019s Office at 166 Boulder Drive, DeBonis & Davin Florist, Slattery\u2019s Restaurant and at the Fitchburg Historical Society. Charles Sternaimolo (photographer), Anne Giancola (graphic artist) and to Miles Press (printers) created the posters, brochures, and tickets for the House Tours.<\/p>\n
