Tour the Blazier house and Midcentury Modern Architecture Museum

NEW event.
Will do again: 2031
Cost: $10

In keeping with our 2025 theme of 20th century history, we will tour the house and museum of midcentury modern architecture designed by architect Charles King. Our docent, Margaret, lives in a different King home and is the local resident expert on midcentury modern homes and the work of King.

"He favored a design style that today is known at Midcentury Modern.
"During his fourteen years in Belleville, {Charles} King designed and completed 34 public and commercial projects and an estimated 100 custom designed residences and home additions. Perhaps most notable is the Belleville City Hall. All but three of King's works in Belleville still stand today." (http://bellevillehistoricalsociety.org/projects/architect-charles-erwin-king/)
