It’s back! On Sunday, September 17, from 1pm to 4 pm, you are once again invited to stroll one of Ottawa’s oldest neighbourhoods and explore five private homes.
Your entry fee to the tour supports the Glebe Neighbourhood Activities Group (GNAG), in particular, a subsidy program that makes it possible for Ottawa families and children with special needs to participate in GNAG's programs and activities.
The tour is an easy walk or take advantage of the free shuttle bus service. Once you're finished exploring the homes, enjoy a complimentary tea service with superb baked goods at the Glebe Community Centre from 2:30 pm to 5:00 pm.
The tour is self-guided, however, there will be knowledgeable volunteers stationed throughout the homes to answer questions.
Tickets are available starting August 15 ($35 per person in advance and $40 the day of the event) and are available at the Glebe Community Centre, 175 Third Avenue or on-line at gnag.ca. Children aged 12 and up are welcome with their own ticket, as are babies in arms at no additional charge.
Tickets are limited.
