Long known as the “heart of the home,” the kitchen is where the action is. Mariposa AAUW (American Association of Women) will host “Fork in the Road”, a chance to peek inside ten distinctive indoor and outdoor kitchens on Sunday, May 17 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The tour’s homes will feature unique, party-worthy kitchens with “Don’t Miss” features such as their cabinetry and countertops or pizza ovens and fire pits.

The tour will also feature “A Moveable Feast” of finger foods offered at each home, including wine tasting, as well as an optional scavenger hunt game and raffle to add to the fun. Docents and homeowners will share the special stories of each house. It promises to be an entertaining day visiting beautiful homes of the area.

Tickets are $20 and benefit the community service and educational projects of AAUW.  To purchase tickets in advance and to see details, maps and photos of the kitchens on the tour, visit the AAUW website at: www.aauwmariposa.com.

Tickets will also be on sale at any house on the day of the tour. Check the website for addresses.
