MESSAGE FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

What a way to show off the best of Lougheed House. Christmas All Through The House was a spectacular showcase for the Calgary Design Group and the wonderful sponsors who provided furniture, artifacts, rugs and décor items. We had hundreds of visitors over the five days of the event, and we raised significant  money to put towards our programming. We’ll definitely do this again in 2010.
