Guided Tour of the Day House – Dec 7, 2025

Join us for a tour of the Day House, decorated for the holidays, any time between 1:00 and 3:00 pm.

Enjoy the house’s unique design and beautiful interiors dating to the 1890s. This is a great opportunity to see diverse items in the society’s collection, including historic artifacts and images that have never been displayed before.

Fred Holland Day, a noted photographer, publisher, historian, and philanthropist, was born in the house in 1864, and lived there until his death in 1933.

Originally built in the Second Empire style in 1859, the Day family completely renovated the house in the early 1890s.

Tours last approximately 45 minutes. The Day House is also open for group tours and for research by appointment.
