Shown at the historic Little Theatre, light refreshments will be served. The tour on Saturday features 5 private homes in the Gibbs/Selden street area, including a fabulous bonus home at the Sagamore on East! The Center for the Study of Civil and Human Rights Laws is also included, with their incredible civil rights objects collection – housed in a beautiful mid-19th century home.
