The Holly & The Ivy Holiday Homes Tour
New Bern Woman’s Club is pleased to announce CENTURY 21 Coastal Advantage as our Event
Sponsor for the 23rd Annual Holly & Ivy Holiday Homes Tour. Shirley Morrison, owner and
broker, says her company philosophy is based on building relationships, and the Holly & Ivy
sponsorship is a way for her to strengthen their commitment to the community. She is proud to
give back by supporting NBWC, a nonprofit deeply rooted in doing so much to help address
needs in New Bern.
This year’s Holly & Ivy is scheduled for Saturday, the 10th of December 2022, from 10:30 am
until 3:30 pm. The event gives folks the opportunity to see the interiors of six beautiful homes
built in a range of styles and dates, decorated for the holidays in the downtown historic district of
New Bern. In addition, this year the tour will include First Presbyterian Church, one of oldest
church buildings in the state. The docent guided tours of these 7 incredible structures celebrate
New Bern’s architectural history.
Holly & Ivy is the signature event of the New Bern Woman’s Club with the proceeds supporting
scholarships and contributions to numerous local charitable causes.
“Save the Date” and watch for announcements when tickets sales begin in November at Bank of
the Arts, Harris Teeter Stores in New Bern, and via PayPal on a will-call basis through the
website, newbernwomansclub.com.
For the price of a $15 ticket, Holly and Ivy is a fun holiday experience that is educational and
includes a stop off at the designated Sugar Plum Treats House where cookies and cider will be
served!
