About this event
This event is provided by Cannon Beach History Center & Museum
Attention history hounds, architecture enthusiasts, and the coastally
curious: it’s almost time to put on your walking shoes to take a tour through
Cannon Beach’s unique homes and cottages. Cannon Beach is a small town in
Oregon perched at the edge of the Pacific Ocean.
Each year, the Cannon Beach History Center and Museum opens the doors to
dream homes, vintage cottages, and beach getaways as part of its annual
fundraiser – The Cottage & Garden Tour. Sunset Magazine calls the Tour the
“best autumn event” in Cannon Beach.
Not many home tours take place along one of Oregon’s most beautiful sandy
shores. This must-see event will take place the weekend of September 8 – 10,
2017. The weekend of events includes live music, local art, speaking events,
wine tasting, and a tour of some of the most beautiful homes and gardens of
Cannon Beach.
The 2017 tour will focus on the unique craftsmanship and architecture of
northern Cannon Beach. For those who have attended the tour in previous
years, you know that you will see much more than architectural design. You
will get a chance to see the work of closet artists, private collectors, and
some of the best beach designs. Over the years, homes featured on the tour
have received acclaim in Oregon Home Magazine, Sunset Magazine, and even the
Home and Garden section of The Oregonian.
The proceeds of this event allows the Cannon Beach History Center and Museum
to continue operating as a donation-based museum. It also allows the Museum
to continue offering a free lecture series and field trip program, as well as
a seasonal acoustic series. Times and prices may change. Check website for
more details. Tickets will be available through the Museum’s online gift shop
or by phone at 503-436-9301 beginning on July 1.
