2019 Docomomo Tour Day is October 12 from 10 am to 4 pm
Four decades of mid-century modern homes will be open for the Docomomo US/MN Tour Day on Saturday October 12, 2019! This self-guided home tour features nine mid-century modern homes by notable architects across the Twin Cities.
Wear shoes that are easy on and off… you must either remove your shoes or use provided shoe covers so plan accordingly. Photography may be restricted… ask at each house.
Tickets are available through Eventbrite… $50 for general admission, $30 for Docomomo members, and $15 for students with valid school ID… or you can purchase them at the door at 2132 Folwell Avenue, Falcon Heights. We have our tickets… see you there!
At the first house you visit, you will receive a wristband for admittance to the rest of the residences and a brochure with more information about the homes. The homes are open during specific blocks of time, but may be visited in any order during the assigned time slots.
