Tour/Book

Micro Showcase Tours: We have tours every month or so. All the structures are open for viewing. See the tour dates and sign up at the link below. Also, download & print the newly updated Micro Showcase Tour Guide before you come out.

After 6 years (April 2012 – April 2018) of hosting free Micro Showcase tours for tens of thousands of tiny house fans, we are taking a break from new tours for a while. In the interim, check out the excellent micro building exhibit at the Building Museum.

Micro Showcase Garden Use: The Garden area is available for free for community use during warmer months, and can accommodate up to 50 guests for outdoor events.
