Take a tour and have lunch " or even plan your own private evening event " at the Oklahoma City Orchestra League's 2009 Symphony Show House, 431 N.W. 17th.
One of the organization's largest fund-raisers, the 17-room, 4,600-square-foot historic Heritage Hills villa was built in 1918 and has stood to witness quite a bit of Oklahoma's history. The recently renovated home features the work of 58 designers, and many items will be available for sale. Event proceeds benefit the educational programs of the Oklahoma City Philharmonic and the Orchestra League.
"It's a wonderful entertainment," said Jeanne Jackson, an organization spokeswoman. "They're going to see some wonderful decor, and they're going to be supporting a really good cause for their community."
