The program starts at 11:30 at Tosca Ristorante, on Fernway Street in West
Village. For reservations,
call 682-3036, email info at preservationdurham.org, or visit the PD website at

"Painting 101"
Location:     118 S. Driver St., East Durham
Time:           9:30 until Noon
Russell's Paint Company will teach you how to paint safely when priming and
painting your historic home.
You will learn the best color choices for rooms of all sizes and how to
create an inviting feeling.
Lorisa Seibel of Durham Affordable Housing Coalition will also be giving a
hands on training class on
how to safely paint, scrape and dispose lead paint.


March 28
"Paint Perk-up"
Using the training methods we learned from Russell's Paint training session,
come help us finish
the painting project at 118 S. Driver St.

And last but not least, and not really last for long, please mark 
your calendar for the first weekend in May. We'll hold the Annual Old 
Durham Home Tour on Saturday in the Morehead Hill neighborhood. We 
have a terrific array of homes for you to view and you will want to 
be sure to attend! As always, we will need  dozens of volunteers to 
staff the homes and it is a great chance to get in at a bargain 
price. Stay tuned - we'll be sending out info about that soon.

We appreciate your support!
