Last Evening Christmastime Event When: Tue Dec 17, 2013 7-9PM Where: Zimmerman House 17111 NE Sandy Blvd Gresham OR Get Map!

If you've enjoyed the Zimmerman House during the day...
you should see her at night!

A Journey Back In Time...
The historic Zimmerman House was built in 1874 and was home to three generations of the Zimmerman Family. Their furnishings and personal articles remain in this two-story Victorian home, including children’s toys, games, Christmas postcards, and winter clothing. The third annual evening tours will be held on Tuesday, December 10th and December 17th from 3pm-8pm. We’ll have carols playing on the parlor piano, family recipes on exhibit and ginger snap cookies from the family recipe to take home.

Parking is extremely limited, so please consider car pooling. Please reserve the time you'd like to visit the House, and give yourself approximately 45 minutes to explore both floors of the home.

Reservation required. Visit https://zimmermanholidays.eventbrite.com

Admission is free, but the suggested donation for this special event is $5 per person 12 and older. Your donation helps to support our all-volunteer organization and enters you into a drawing for one of two holiday “thank you” gifts! $5.00 donation is paid at event location by cash or check, no debit/credit cards.
