QQA events tonight and Monday

Posted on by
This is a busy weekend for the Quapaw Quarter Association.
Tonight the QQA returns to their former headquarters, the Villa Marre, for a special event.  The Quapaw Quarter Association’s 48th Spring Tour of Homes is just around the corner, May 12-13. We are so excited about this year’s tour that we’re having a preview party at the recently reopened Villa Marre.  Join us for cocktails and hors d’oevres, a fun fashion show from Vintage Socialite, and learn more about the Spring Tour.
The newly-reopened Villa Marre is sponsoring the event.  This facility has been refurbished and is now available for special events.

Normally the Preservation Conversations take place at the QQA headquarters at Curran Hall.  This month only, it will be at the Jeffrey Hawkins Conference Room in the Pulaski County Regional Center, 501 West Markham Street (across the street from Little Rock City Hall).

Preservation Conversations are free and open to the public.

The Quapaw Quarter Association’s mission is to promote the preservation of Little Rock’s architectural heritage through advocacy, marketing and education.

Incorporated in 1968, the QQA grew out of an effort to identify and protect significant historic structures in Little Rock during the urban renewal projects of the early 1960s.  Throughout its existence, the QQA has been a driving force behind historic preservation in Greater Little Rock.
