Tickets are available now for the annual Georgetown House Tour on Saturday, April 18, 11 a.m. – 5 p.m.
Since 1931, St. John’s Episcopal Church has organized and hosted the Georgetown House Tour to raise funds for ministry and outreach. From day one, the House Tour has been an important part of enabling the mission of St John’s in the greater Georgetown community.
Each year the Georgetown House Tour features a number of Georgetown’s most beautiful homes. Houses are within easy walking distance and can be visited at your own pace and in your preferred order. The tour price includes a House Tour brochure full of useful information that serves also as your admission to each home, and includes a map of the houses along with historic information and background on each house.
Don’t miss the Parish Tea held in Blake Hall at historic St. John’s Church, 3240 O St. NW. This lovely tea tradition features homemade tea sandwiches and sweets. You may walk in at any time between 12 pm and 4:30 pm to delight in what the parish volunteers are serving!
The Patrons’ Party, held the Wednesday before the House Tour, is another annual Georgetown tradition. Our very own Frida Burling created the Patrons’ Party sixteen years ago to raise additional funds for St. John’s ministries. The first Patrons’ Party was hosted by author Kitty Kelley and since then many of our wonderful Georgetowners have opened their homes to host this wonderful party.
