Kitchen Revival Tour 2013
The annual Kitchen Revival Tour hosted by the Architectural Heritage Center is coming up soon – Saturday, April 13, 2013 from 10am-4pm. This is a great time to see period homes that have been preserved or restored to their original character. The past couple of years have included great examples of mid-century kitchens.
Details from the AHC website:
It’s time, once again, for our biggest education event of the year! Thanks to the generosity of homeowners and the hard work of our all-volunteer tour selection committee, we have identified eight fantastic homes for the 15th Annual Kitchen Revival Tour.
No matter what style or era you prefer, this self-guided tour never fails to offer a little something for everyone. Homes on the tour range in age from the 1890s to the 1950s. The kitchens themselves represent everything from intact original and do-it-yourself projects, to complete and period appropriate renovations. This year’s tour also includes a historic 1928 home in Laurelhurst that was once a model for a local brick and tile company. We’re absolutely sure you’ll find it amazing!
If you are considering taking on a kitchen renovation project yourself, homeowners and contactors will be on hand to provide tips and real-life experiences on everything from retaining original material to disguising a dishwasher. The tour is sure to convince even the biggest of skeptics that you can adapt an older home to a 21st century lifestyle while still retaining its historic character and charm.
We hope you’ll join us for this unique and always popular program as we continue our mission to inspire people to conserve the art, craft, and context of historic buildings.
