Calling all historic home aficionados.
One of Little Rock’s favorite traditions will once again grace the Quapaw Quarter area this spring. Now in its 60th year, the annual Tour of Homes will feature historic homes and impactful buildings, all opening their doors for the public to enjoy May 10-11.
The Tour of Homes is the Quapaw Quarter Association’s biggest and longest-running fundraiser, often pulling in nearly 1,000 people over the course of the weekend.
The 2025 tour highlights the MacArthur Park Historic District with a focus on art and architecture, featuring nine homes during daytime tours and two only accessible during the nighttime candlelit tour.
