Thank You!

Just a quick word of thanks to over 300 people who visited our Garden Tour yesterday! The weather was warm and the event was a great success. Many of our neighbors turned out to volunteer and, of course, enjoy our after-party social event.

Visit our website to see some pictures of the Tour!

Special thanks also to the High Street Gallery and the Missing Peace Gallery for being a part of the affair.  The next tour will be the 2011 Christmas Tour followed by another Garden Tour in 2012.

For more information or just to meet a friendly bunch of people, stop by our next meeting at 7 pm on the First Tuesday of every month in the Liederkranz building on High Street.

The St. Anne’s Hill Garden & Art Tour will make its biennial return Saturday, June 26, 2010, offering self-guided tours of some of Dayton’s most beautiful historic gardens and a unique selection of regional art, including the neighborhood’s two fine art galleries.


The self-guided tours will begin at the High Street Gallery located at 48 High Street in Dayton, Ohio. The tour will include a variety of unique gardens, galleries, local art vendors, and parks along our charming neighborhood streets. Visitors will pick up a program and then stroll through the gardens and galleries at their leisure. Enjoy the fresh air while perusing local art!


For a true old-fashioned treat, visit our Victorian Tea Garden for refreshments and enjoy a relaxing moment on the front lawn of the landmark Bossler Mansion overlooking downtown Dayton. This magnificent home is a landmark structure built in 1869, and it is considered Dayton’s best example of Second Empire architecture.


Tickets this year are $10 each for the tour alone, or $15 for the tour and a visit to the Victorian Tea Garden. Tickets may be ordered online at www.stanneshill.org. Ample parking is available at the Bomberger Center and Stivers School for the Arts.


Proceeds from the tour will benefit the St. Anne’s Hill Neighborhood Association, and are used to maintain the neighborhood’s historic character. Since it became a registered historic district in 1974, the St. Anne's Hill Historic District neighborhood has relied on the efforts of the volunteers in St. Anne's Hill Historic Society to insure its continued success and growth.
