On June 3, 2023, the Elfreth’s Alley Association will hold its annual Fete Day celebration. This is an event which dates back to 1934 (89 years!), in which residents of Elfreth’s Alley open their doors to allow visitors a glimpse of 21st century life in these 18th- and 19th-century houses. Discover how generation after generation have continued to preserve, alter and add to these historic structures. There will be entertainment, concessions, refreshments, and other activities!

This event is a fundraiser for the Elfreth's Alley Association, which works to preserve this historic street and tell the stories of this place through the Elfreth's Alley Museum (at houses #124 and #126) and events throughout the year. There are a variety of ways to support our organization, including volunteering at events and in the museum, shopping in our gift shop, and donating if you can. Find more information about the street's history and ways to support our work at http://www.elfrethsalley.org.

About the Elfreth's Alley Association: The Elfreth's Alley Association was founded in 1934 to preserve one of America's oldest residential streets. Since the 1960s, the EAA has operated a museum at houses #124 and #126 as part of its ongoing work to preserve and protect the historic district and interpret the contributions of everyday Philadelphians to the American story.
