Don’t miss an opportunity to visit several unique Hartford-area homes during The Friends of The Mark Twain House & Museum’s 36th annual Holiday House Tour on Sunday, December 4, 2016, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Along with five private homes in West Hartford, Hartford and Bloomfield, the nonprofit tour will feature Mark Twain's 19-room home in Hartford. The home of West Hartford Mayor Shari Cantor, and her husband Michael, will be one of the houses on the tour. All of the homes will be decorated festively for the holidays and will feature live music and floral arrangements. The Mark Twain House will be decorated for a late 19th century Christmas.

Advance tickets are $30 each and can be purchased at West Hartford businesses, bk&co, Gledhill Nursery, and Moscarillo’s Garden Shoppe, or by calling 860-280-3130 or at www.marktwainhouse.org. Tickets will be $35 each on the day of the tour and will be available at the Mark Twain House & Museum.
