Let’s Celebrate the City at the Fisher Mansion!

Celebrate the City is an annual historic preservation celebration and fundraising event for City-owned historic properties. Last year's inaugural event was an afternoon of 1890’s-themed entertainment to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the City & County Building renovation.

Celebrate the City 2010 will be a two-day extravaganza featuring the Fisher Mansion. The event will be held at the property and will celebrate the history of Albert Fisher, the Fisher Brewing Company, the fine architecture of the mansion and carriage house, and the culture and history of the surrounding neighborhood. Planning is in its initial stages, but we anticipate hosting the following events:

• Gala Victorian evening (Friday 5/14/10, 6-8 pm)
• Family-friendly community activities (Saturday 5/15/10, 1-4 pm)
• Beer/root beer garden (Saturday 5/15/10, 5-9 pm)

Mark your calendars to attend!
