Pillars will be flinging open the doors of three unique historic and modern homes in La Grange as part of their Party for Pillars month-long fundraising event. This year’s Mini House Tour will take place on June 10, a smaller and more intimate version of their 13-year-old housewalk.

Visitors can ogle a waterfall in an outdoor living area, check out the state-of-the-art gourmet kitchens and see examples of old-world craftsmanship combined with modern amenities. Tickets are $25.

Featured homes include the Peterson home, a turn-of-the-century colonial revival in the La Grange Historic District, which mixes traditional elements with modern appointments; the Brown home, which includes an elaborate garden, modern design and open floor plan; and the Anisi home (pictured), a spectacular new construction in the heart of La Grange with a welcoming front porch and gourmet kitchen.

Pillars is a mental health and social service agency, which provides quality mental health services, social services and education for people of all ages. For more information or to purchase tickets, visit www.pillarscommunity.org or call (708) 995-3512.
