Holiday House
The first Holiday House began in 1960 and continues to be the Charity League's largest fundraiser. Almost all past Holiday Houses, belong to a League member who offers up her house to showcase at the beginning of the Christmas season. This year's house actually includes two houses, both historic homes in the Uptown Lexington area. The lead designer is Lexington's very own, very talented, Mickey Sharpe of Mickey Sharpe Design. One of these homes, The Homestead, will be Lexington's newest Bed & Breakfast. Tickets are only $10 (children 12 & under are free) and can be purchased from any League member or purchasing online HERE. All proceeds go directly to supporting the League's mission of helping the children of Davidson County.
Make sure you take time to visit the Shoppes of Holiday House to purchase goodies for the holiday season. Some of the items you see in the house will also be for sale at the Shoppes.

2018 Holiday House: Regional Designers Create Two Homes for the Holidays
This year we are excited to announce not one, but two Holiday Houses. The Inn at The Homestead has been recently renovated as Lexington's newest Bed & Breakfast. We will also be showcasing the Inn's owners' home on 118 West Third Avenue. Both houses and the Shoppes (located at the Events Center at the YMCA) are all within walking distance in Uptown Lexington. These homes are being designed by regional Interior Designers and will showcase gorgeous holiday touches. New this year, we will also be featuring Candlelight Tours at the homes. Come support the Charity League and see these beautiful homes.
