2018 Mid Century Modern Home Tour
May 11-12, 2018 |
Through education initiatives like the Mid-Century Modern Home Tour, Restore Oregon raises awareness for preservation and fosters greater appreciation for the historic structures and cultural heritage that contribute to the beauty of Oregon. Now in its 8th year, the 2018 Mid-Century Modern Home Tour has grown into a two-day, three-part design event:
• Part I—An Architecture & Design Lecture: Participants will learn about Pacific Northwest Modernism, John Storrs unique design perspective, and take a self-guided tour of the Oregon College of Art and Craft (OCAC), one of Storrs well-known commercial designs.
Friday, May 11, lecture at 7pm at
the Jean Vollum DPP building on the campus of OCAC.
Self-guided campus tour from
5:30-7pm. $10 for lecture attendance only.
• Part II—Self-Guided Home Tour: This self-guided, driving tour allows participants to explore five of Storrs-designed residential homes at their own pace. Participants discover unique interiors, explore imaginatively designed outdoor living areas, and have a rare chance to gain an intimate view of Mid-Century Modern living as envisioned by a master.
Saturday, May 12, 10am–4pm. Tickets: $40 for Restore
Oregon member/donors, $50 for non-members. Tour check-in begins at 9:00am at
the Oregon College of Art and Craft. Includes lecture and MIX:MOD after party.
