The 11th annual Litchfield Hills Kitchen Tour to benefit the Housatonic Musical Theatre Society will be held Saturday, November 2, 2013 from 10 am – 4 pm. This year’s tour will feature six kitchens in the towns of Kent and Cornwall.
Kitchens on the tour will range in style and size to inspire a variety of approaches to the “heart of the home.” This year's homes include a barn designed for entertaining with a large kitchen island and table with cherry wood from a backyard tree; an Early Modern House finished in 1939 for Pulitzer Prize winner Hatcher Hughes, recently restored by the present owners to its original splendor; a restored barn with two storybook cottages; a house built for large crowds and family get-togethers featuring a beautiful screened-in detached room with a massive stone fireplace; a center hall colonial that is a complete renovation featuring a large center kitchen island, a bar area and a traditional dining room.
To enhance the experience of Kitchen Tourists, local caters and restaurants will be offering a sampling of delicacies at each kitchen on the tour. There will also be a number of raffle prizes offered. Advance Kitchen Tour ticket buyers will receive two complimentary raffle tickets for the various raffle prize drawings.
Tickets for the Kitchen Tour are $35 in advance and $40 the day of the Tour. For information, go to hmts.org or call (860) 364-6022 or email hmtsct@gmail.com.
