Early Tickets Available For Street of Eames

2009 Street of Eames home tourIf you act quickly, you may be able to secure advance tickets now to Portland’s only annual tour of mid-century and modern contemporary homes.

The Street of Eames tour is scheduled for Saturday, April 18, 2009, and if previous years are any indication, you may want to avoid the crush of online ticket seekers when the general admission tickets go on sale in mid-February.

The first three SoE shows were instant sell-outs.

Reflecting the demand, ticket prices are up some this year. General admission tickets are $50 and student tickets will run $40, but for a limited time, you can secure advance tickets with an additional $150 tax-deductible donation to the tour’s Project Return/Chapman Foundation, which provide after-school programs for homeless students attending Chapman and Beach elementary schools. The all volunteer-run home tour effort has raised $283,000 toward these programs in the first three years.
