Mr. Rummer’s Neighborhood:
A Mid-Century Modern Block Party
Restore Oregon and its Modernism Committee were thrilled to bring back our big, in-person mid-century modern tour to the Bohmann Park neighborhood this year! Tour guests strolled through four Robert Rummer built homes, even the home he designed for his family. We saw many smiling faces and the tours featured gorgeous architecture and design, as well as lots of sunshine.
Tickets sold out to 600 guests who traveled from 28 cities in Oregon and 6 cities in Washington to view 4 homes, all nestled into 1 street. And they helped raise close to $30,000 in one day of tour fun that will support Restore Oregon, our state’s only nonprofit working to leverage relationships and resources to preserve, protect, and pass forward Oregon's heritage—including mid-century modern design!
Many thanks to our generous sponsors whose support is helping bring our 2023 Modernism events to life. And thank you to our tour goers for supporting our second biggest fundraising event of the year and celebrating the preservation of mid-century modern design with us.
