For the health and safety of our patrons and speakers, masks may be required for indoor in-person Houston Seminar events, and we strongly prefer registrants to be fully vaccinated. Since events are held at a variety of venues with their own policies and protocols, there may be other requirements for some courses. We make every effort to inform guests in a timely manner if there are additional health and safety guidelines they will be asked to follow. Our trips and study tours, particularly those that include shared transportation or plane flights, may also require guidelines beyond those for in-person courses, which will be determined in conjunction with venues, vendors, and local guidelines. We will make every effort to announce these guidelines as far in advance as possible. Thank you for bearing with us as we continue to navigate the world of COVID-19 while bringing enriching experiences to our audiences.
A Visit to Galveston’s East End

A Visit to Galveston’s East End
STEPHEN FOX
We will visit Galveston's East End Historic District and tour three private houses (construction dates range from 1868 to 1890) that have not previously been open for public viewing. All three houses survived the Storm of 1900 and were part of the post-hurricane reconstruction of Galveston. A picnic lunch from the Mosquito Café will be served in the pavilion of the Gartenverein.
Stephen Fox is a fellow of the Anchorage Foundation of Texas and co-author of Galveston Architecture Guidebook (1996).
Please wear comfortable clothes and walking shoes that will not harm the floors of our hosts' houses.
