ABOUT THE SHOW HOUSE

Every Show House, the Junior League spends many months searching for a notable home or estate in the Greater Hartford area, and selects designers to makeover the interior and grounds. After transformation, the public is invited to view the grand home that has been redesigned from the inside out.  The Designer Show House is more than a home tour, it is an experience. Guests of the Show House are able to shop from vendors or purchase designer furnishings featured in the Designer Show House.  A percentage of these sales go directly to the Junior League of Hartford.

Our 16th Designer Show House is dedicated to Mary Lynn Gorman. After participating in a Junior League Show House in Ohio, Mary Lynn brought the Show House to the Junior League of Hartford and co-chaired the first event in 1979. Mary Lynn passed away on December 19, 2023. She volunteered for decades with the Junior League and other local nonprofits in addition to her 30 year career in public relations with the Hartford Whalers &amp; Wolf Pack and raising 4 sons. We are proud to continue her legacy in our 16th Show House, 46 years after her inaugural effort. 

Funds raised from this event are used to fuel the League’s mission and charitable projects for the next 3 years. Our primary focus in the community is addressing the impact of systemic poverty on women and families in Greater Hartford. Funds raised at the Show House are deployed in grants to nonprofits making a difference against systemic poverty such as Journey Home, Inc. and the Diaper Bank of Connecticut, as well as in our own service projects. 

We look forward to welcoming the public to our 16th Designer Show House! For more information, visit hartford.jl.org/ShowHouse
