The Crafton Historical Society will be hosting its House Tour and Home Restoration Fair on Sunday, May 16, 2010 from 1 to 5. Download a poster

Although Crafton comprises just one square mile, there are more fine turn-of-the-century homes here than in many other Pittsburgh neighborhoods. The House Tour highlights some of Crafton’s most beautiful turn-of-the-century homes, their histories and their meticulous restorations. Members of the Crafton Historical Society believe these houses, their architecture, and Crafton's rich history are worth sharing and preserving. Currently, there are six houses on the Tour, with other possibilities pending, as well as Hawthorne Presbyterian Church.

The Restoration Fair, back by popular demand, will feature local merchants and craftspeople who service the Western area and who understand the joys and challenges of working with older homes. This would include, among others, furniture restoration, kitchen and bath designers, roofers, electricians, carpenters, plumbers and landscapers. The Restoration Fair will be at the Crafton Community Center, 140 Bradford Ave. (15205).

Admission for the House Tour and the Restoration Fair is only $10. If you plan to only attend the Restoration Fair, admission is only $2.
