Thank you to Natasha E. Glushkoff at GOODWIN PROCTER LLP for the following announcement:
There's a festive little "Holiday Open House" event this Sunday, from 12-3. This would be the big old Victorian (the Haas-Lilienthal House). It's all beautifully decorated throughout, with a real 13-foot tree in the front parlor...
and there'll be refreshments and live music (& a visit from Santa at 2!) as well as a silent auction downstairs (& I think some other stuff for sale), and a holiday boutique upstairs (that would be me, selling stuff that I & some of my friends, made). Admission is $10/adult and $5/kid - but your admission covers not only all the food and drink you can hold, but a year's membership at Heritage - which, among other things, entitles you to free House and walking tours for yourself and guests for the next year (normally $8 each.) You'll also get discounted admission to Heritage lectures and other events for the year.
Anyway - it's a great deal, and a festive time! You can explore most of the House on your own that day - no tours (& no ropes)! Tickets can be purchased at the front door ~ & if you come by, be sure to come upstairs and say hello!! If you plan to shop, bring along cash/checkbook (tho they will take credit cards downstairs.)
The Haas-Lilienthal House is at 2007 Franklin Street, between Washington & Jackson Streets, in Pacific Hts. Public transport is recommended, as parking is usually somewhat of a nightmare around there. The House is a museum owned and operated by the non-profit architectural preservation organization, San Francisco Architectural Heritage.
