On Saturday, December 4th, celebrate the beauty of the season with the Newtown Historic Association's holiday house tour. Now in it's 58th year, this tour gives visitors the opportunity to peek into several of Newtown's private residences, all dressed for the holidays.
The streets of the borough will be alive with the sounds of the season as tour-goers make their way to the four town residences on this year's tour. Besides the private homes, there will be seven public buildings open for visitors. All sites are within easy walking distance from the town center.
The $30 cost of a tour ticket also includes entry into the Half Moon Inn, home to the Newtown Historic Association. Once inside this beautifully restored 18th century building, tour-goers will enjoy period musical entertainment and hearthside colonial cooking demonstrations.
Tour hours are from 10:00AM to 4:00PM. Advance tickets can be purchased after November 17th at the Newtown Book and Record Exchange, 102 South State Street and online at the Association's website, www.newtownhistoric.org/housetour. Tour day, tickets can be purchased at the Half Moon Inn, 105 Court Street and at the Stocking Works, 301 South State Street, Newtown.
