Tour Monroe’s historic homes Nov. 12 to support Monroe Historical Society
and recognize homeowners

For the first time in 26 years, the Monroe Historical Society is presenting
a tour of Monroe’s historic homes and churches. The event is a fundraiser
for the society with all proceeds going to maintain the museum and keep it
operating as a free attraction and resource in the community. The tour
replaces the society’s quarterly program for fall.

Six beautiful homes are on the Nov. 12 tour including the stately Harniss
House and the Victorian Wolfe House with its gingerbread accents (below).
The Healy House on Hill Street, two additional historic homes on Blakeley
and a 1920 craftsman on Lewis Street round out the homes on the tour.  The
event is self-guided. It starts at the 1908 City Hall Building, now home to
the Monroe Historical Society museum, for a tour and refreshments. Those
with tickets will exchange them for a tour guide and map the day of the
tour which will serve as admission to the six homes. Tickets are available
the day of the tour or may be purchased in advance at the museum, through
the historical society website, www.monroehistoricalsociety.org, and online
at http://brownpapertickets.com/event/2676625.
