Preservation Resource Center Holiday Home Tour Patron Party

Homes and the holidays was the winning combination celebrated by the Preservation Resource Center (PRC) and its supporters at the Holiday Home Tour Patron Party.

Always a festive kick-off for the tour, the party was held on Dec. 2 at the seasonally bedecked home of Mary and Bill Hines. It was there that guests mixed, mingled and listened to music by the Excelsior Trio, consisting of Aurelian Barnes, trumpet; Matt Perrine, sousa and Seva Vinet, banjo.

The 48th annual tour, presented by McEnery Residential, was Dec. 9 and 10 and featured homes located in the Garden District and Lower Garden District, owned by: Erika and Ted Elliott, W. Howard Moses, Neely and Steve Griffith, Scott K. James and Gregory Morey, Courtney and RJ Marse, and Anna and Tim Lucas. Bonus properties, St. Mary’s Assumption Church and St. Mary’s Chapel, were open for tours.

The Holiday Home Tour Committee Chair was Mirell Gallo.

Fun Fact: The PRC is celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2024. Since it was founded in 1974, the organization has saved historic places in New Orleans, helped residents buy and renovate houses and provided home repairs to low-income residents.
