2007 Venice Garden Tour
The 13th annual Venice Garden and Home Tour will take place on Saturday, May 5, 2007.
The tour was conceived by Venice landscape designer Jay Griffith and Venice community leaders Linda Lucks and Jan Brilliot as a fundraising event to benefit the Neighborhood Youth Association's Las Doradas Children's Center. NYA was founded in 1906 by the Episcopal Diocese of Los Angeles and has enhanced the lives of thousands of "at risk" children.
This annual event is a self-guided walking tour of Venice homes and gardens. This year's tour features historic walk-streets, mostly hidden from view, a short stroll east of the trendy shops and cafes on Abbot Kinney Boulevard. Over a hundred years ago, Abbot Kinney designed Venice as a beachfront resort with waterways and walkways, to recreate the Venetian ambience in Venice, California.
The Venice Garden and Home Tour is an annual event in Venice, California that showcases unusual and delightful homes and gardens that exemplify the creative and original tastes of their owners, as well as the talents of local designers.
