New Canaan CARES is thrilled to announce the 32nd Annual Home Tour, taking place on Friday, May 16, 2025. This highly anticipated community event invites attendees to step inside five stunning homes, each showcasing a unique design element that connects to CARES’ core pillars—Empowering Youth, Strengthening Families, and Building Community. The tour will conclude with an optional, exclusive after-party at a bonus sixth home.

The tour will run from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Tickets are on sale now at www.newcanaancares.org.

The Home Tour is New Canaan CARES’ largest annual fundraising event, with 100% of proceeds directly supporting youth leadership programs, parent workshops, and health and wellness initiatives throughout the community. “As an independent nonprofit, the Home Tour generates almost half of our annual budget, which allows us to continue to deliver quality, responsive community programming,” says Colleen Prostor, Executive Director of New Canaan CARES.
This year’s Home Tour theme, “Connection by Design,” highlights how architecture and interior design can foster meaningful connections.
