BAHA is offering two lectures in conjunction with the Berkeley 1890 “at home” house tour.

Author Paul Duchscherer will speak on Victorian Glory in San Francisco and the Bay Area on Wednesday, 28 April. No doubt, many of you are familiar with his magnficent book of the same title. The book will be available for sale at the lecture.

Paul Roberts will lecture on A.W. Pattiani, Victorian Designer-Builder on Wednesday, 5 May. Pattiani designed and built several houses on the BAHA tour, and this lecture by the foremost expert on Pattiani will broaden our knowledge about his work.

Both lectures will be held at the beautiful arts-and-crafts Church by the Side of the Road, 2108 Russell Street, Berkeley, at 7:30 pm. Tickets are $7 and may be ordered by phone at (510) 841-2242. They will also be available on both evenings at the lecture site.
