Was a huge success!
 Thank You!!

Napa County Landmarks hosted the 30th Annual Holiday Candlelight Tour on Saturday, December 14th. This year’s tour featured many heritage homes in the Old Town Napa, Franklin & Randolph Streets area.  The event reception & check-in was at the United Methodist Church, at the Franklin & Fourth Streets. Featured at the reception was a life size Nativity Scene created by Napa artist, Louise Tessin Roats, circa 1958. Each piece is an individual work of art. An offering of light refreshments was available as well as a silent auction.  Musicians performed holiday music throughout the homes and vintage cars were also on display. 
 
Thank you for all who attended this wonderful holiday event!
We look forward to seeing you again next year.
