Showcase of homes will aid Costa Mesa schools

The Sabori home is one of four houses that will be showcased during the first Costa Mesa Home for the Holidays tour Thursday.

The event, to benefit Costa Mesa Middle and High schools, will include a holiday boutique and a look at the Mesa Water Native Demonstration Garden. Lunch will be provided by Greenleaf Gourmet Chopshop.

The goal is to have the event become one of four major annual fundraisers for the schools foundation. This year the tour will help fund a concert grand piano for the schools’ new performing arts center, as well as scientific field studies, student trips and other opportunities for the science and arts academies.

Tickets are on sale at https://www.costamesahometour.com for $50 each.
