We are excited to announce that the historic Pansy Cottage will be on the tour! This charming cottage, built in 1885, was once owned by the popular author Isabella MacDonald Alden, who wrote under the pen name "Pansy". It is the only remaining structure of its kind and is a highlight of the local historic walking tour. Don't miss this unique opportunity to step inside a piece of DeFuniak Springs' rich Chautauqua history!
This beautiful home is now owned by the author of the Manawassa Springs series of mysteries (and other books as well), Alexa Ann Kempson.
Fund a noble cause: All proceeds from ticket sales directly support the St. Agatha's Preservation Fund. This fund is dedicated to the ongoing maintenance and repair of the church's three historic buildings on Circle Drive, which date back to the late 1880s.
