The tour is seeking eight “whimsical, funky and creative homes” to showcase next year.
According to the organization, participating homeowners may receive:
- Professional photos of their home for their own use.
- Mention of any business associated with the home or homeowners in press, social media and the Weird Homes Tour website.
- The ability to sell any approved products or artistic items at the home the day of the tour.
- Two pairs of tour tickets to give to friends and family members.
- Bragging rights.
The organization added that anyone who refers a Weird Home participant gets a free pair of VIP tickets.
“San Antonio is one of the cultural jewels of Texas,” co-founder and CEO David J. Neff said in a released statement. “We know we will find a vibrant community of homeowners, performance artists and collectors in San Antonio, and can’t wait to highlight them. San Antonio will certainly offer up some welcome alternatives to shiplap and farm sinks.”
The Neffs have pivoted to offer virtual home tours on YouTube, as well as with Atlas Obscura, in addition to virtual versions of citywide tours, according to the organization.
