Since 1985, I've been attending an annual benefit that is so wonderful that I haven't been able to miss a year yet!  This event is definitely worth seeing at least once in a lifetime, but it is so fabulous, I'm drawn back year after year, sometimes attending three or four times during it's run.

Since 1965, the Pasadena Showcase House for the Arts (PSHA) holds the PASADENA SHOWCASE House of Design, one of the largest and most respected home and garden tours in the United States.  The proceeds and donations for this benefit help fund concerts given by the Pasadena Junior Philharmonic and awards grants and scholarships to various musical programs throughout the Southern California area.  A great benefit and this home and garden tour is one NOT to be missed.  For designers, home stagers, landscape artists and anyone who appreciates architecture and design, this is the place to be. 

A day at SHOWCASE HOUSE is really quite an experience.  After enjoying a tour of the beautiful estate and gardens, plan on having lunch or dinner during night tours and of course, what would a day be without a little shopping. 

If you live in or are planning to visit the Southern California area in April or May, try to make it a point to see the 2009 Pasadena Showcase House!  You'll be glad you did!  Here is the link below for more information and tickets. Enjoy!  APRIL 19-MAY 17

Michelle: After checking out the links you've provided, I can understand your excitement!!! The designer of this years Showcase House also designed the Tournament of Roses House, Wrigley Mansion (I believe that is what it said), and I've been there!  Pasadena has so many wonderful estates that tell the story of the history of this great city.

Maybe next year I will be able to go... Maybe I could huitch a ride.?

Cathy- The San Francisco showcase house looks like it will be a great one again this year too!  How exciting for your friend to have the opportunity to work on one of the rooms of the house.  It's great to experience the different designers work and see all the latest materials used in design today.  Hope you get the chance to travel south and see Pasadena's house. I am adding the link for the San Francisco Showcase too, for anyone traveling up YOUR way, it's an awesome showcase as well! Have a GREAT time!

SAN FRANCISCO SHOWCASE!

Michele,

Yes, a lot of talented designers put their best efforts into designing this beautiful Pasadena estate.  It's hard for me to pick my favorite room in the house, they were all so specially appointed and had each designers unique style...however, if I had to pick just one, the spa room in the guest quarters was so incredible.
