No soft whispers or little booties to wear so you don’t disturb the carpet: these are genuine HOUSES, where creative, individual, unconventional people actually live. And they’re opening up their houses for one afternoon so you can enjoy their personal zeitgeist.

Start the day, Saturday, May 2nd at 1 pm, by dropping by OFFCenter Community Arts Project where you can buy your tickets and get your map to three very unusual houses. (As always at OFFCenter, you can stop to join us in some art making, and having a little snack.) You’ll also be given the clues for a “quirky hunt”, where you’ll be eligible to win wonderful (need we say, quirky) prizes.

Then set out to see the houses; “Shoes on a Telephone Pole”, “The Gate House”, “A True Collaboration: Art & Architecture”, and “A Home for Everyone”. You’ll see what we mean.

Return to “Home” at OffCenter by 4 pm. Bring your solution to the “quirky hunt”, make some more art, enjoy the company… What a great day!
