Mark your calendars for Saturday, April 26, 2025, because the Curtis Park Home & Garden Tour is back, promising another delightful day in one of the region’s most picturesque neighborhoods! Dubbed the “happiest day in the neighborhood,” this annual event invites visitors to explore stunning homes and gardens under a canopy of majestic, mature trees. Whether you’re a local or traveling from afar—last year, guests came from as far as Stockton and Chico—you’re in for a treat.
This self-guided walking tour showcases a variety of beautifully preserved properties, each with its own unique character. Last year’s event drew nearly 1,000 attendees who marveled at five diverse homes and gardens, plus four meticulously designed front yard landscapes. One visitor raved, “We loved the houses, the old cars, and the people in vintage clothing. We have never seen such beautiful older homes!” It’s a sentiment echoed by many who discover Curtis Park’s hidden charm for the first time.
Beyond the homes, the tour transforms the north end of Curtis Park into a vibrant community festival. Expect live music filling the air, a lineup of food trucks serving delicious bites, and an expanded selection of arts and crafts for sale. Vintage cars and informational displays add a nostalgic touch to the day. With proceeds from last year’s tour netting $19,000, this event not only celebrates the neighborhood’s heritage but also supports its ongoing vitality. Whether you’re a history buff, a garden enthusiast, or just looking for a fun day out, the Curtis Park Home & Garden Tour offers something for everyone. Don’t miss this chance to step into a living piece of history!
