| Ashley Longshore did the art work for the 2013 PRC Shotgun House Tour posters |
There are seven great houses on the tour this year, taking place in the posh Uptown section of New Orleans. The humble shotgun house never looked prettier or more grand. So all you looky-lous have a wonderful chance to see the inside of these homes. And anyone in the midst of renovating their home will get lots of great ideas from viewing these wonderful houses.

Headquarter for tickets and info will be in front of Whole Foods on Magazine Street. Several merchants offer discounts to ticket holders, so it's a great day to combine the house tour with shopping.

Am so looking forward to this tour Saturday! And all the houses involved are divine. A fabulous way to support the PRC!
ReplyDeleteWe would love to tickets. Fingers crossed! -Lisa in BTR
ReplyDeleteI took the PRC tour when your home was one of the ones featured and I LOVED it! I would love to go on this one as well. - Tracy
ReplyDeleteI cannot wait for this tour.
ReplyDeleteI love the "shotgun" house tour because it's "real" houses-- not ginormous mansions. I am especially looking forward to Jonathan Ferrara's house. The art will be spectacular!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to celebrate my favorite architecture in my favorite city while visiting this weekend and plotting our move to NOLA!
ReplyDeleteOh...I wish I could go...but that's quite a drive for me. Still...it is tempting...
ReplyDeleteI wish I lived in New Orleans!
ReplyDeleteI too wish I lived closer.
ReplyDeleteI'm game. Love the PRC house tours and typically volunteer for them, but not this year!
ReplyDeleteI live close and would love to go :) Loving your blog Valorie!
ReplyDeleteLiving in a shotgun myself I'm always interested to see what other people have done with theirs.
