This year’s ticket holders will experience the works of noted architects such as Emmor Brooke Weaver and Lillian Rice along with the homes of notable Grossmont Colony pioneering “artist” residents such as poet John Vance Chaney, concert violinist Beulah Lewis, and community namesake actor/theater agent William B. Gross. The homes also feature beautiful gardens and landscapes as well as the works of local artist/craftspersons such as James Hubbell, Wayne Chapman, Anne Meek, Lynn Reaves and Mic Mead. Several homes also feature our area’s connection to regional military heritage including homes of Spanish-American War, World War I and World War II veteran officers who made their homes here locally. All Tickets holders will be transported to the homes via air-conditioned buses that run continuously through the tour route.
