HOME TOUR: Sunday, June 8 from 12 PM to 5 PM

Get tickets to our annual home tour, which showcases four stunning examples of mid-century architecture and interior design in Des Moines.

Proceeds from ticket sales will benefit the Iowa Architectural Foundation. Tickets usually sell out in the first 24 hours, so grab 'em while you can! SOLD OUT.
