Fairmount Tour of HomesGet a peek inside some of Fort Worth’s most beautiful homes this weekend on the Fairmount Home Tour, scheduled for May 7-8 from noon to 6 p.m. Tickets can be purchased in advance for $12 each. This year’s tour will showcase five beautifully restored homes, a renovated commercial property, a new construction home built in an appropriate historic style, and a “work in progress” home to give visitors a behind-the-scenes look at home restoration.

If you don’t feel like spending the money on the home tour, however, there will also be plenty of free events happening around the neighborhood in conjunction with the tour. At 10 a.m., things will kick off with a neighborhood parade, which you can watch at Fairmount Park. You’ll also be able to inspect and buy goods from local artisans at a craft show to be held at Zio Carlo (1001 W. Magnolia).
