Decorators' Show House

For the 52nd consecutive year, the Guild is pleased to sponsor the  Decorators’ Show House and Gardens as its major fundraising project.

Founded in 1907, St. Margaret’s Hospital Guild is a volunteer organization committed to raising funds for the services and programs of Wishard Health Services whose mission is to advocate, care, teach, and serve, with special emphasis on the vulnerable populations of Marion County.

Each year Guild members, designers, landscape architects, financial sponsors, and donors of in-kind services volunteer their time, talents, goods, and monies to raise funds to help others. Typically, a homeowner will agree to move into temporary housing while his home is redecorated. Before the redecorating is begun, the house is available for public viewing during Preview Tours in early February. After Preview Tours the designers and landscapers start to work. By late April the Show House is ready for viewing; thus, the springtime tradition of the Decorators’ Show House and Gardens in Indianapolis continues for yet another year.

Over the years, the Guild has raised over $10 million dollars for Wishard Health Services.  Recent programs that have been funded by the donations made possible from the proceeds of the Decorators’ Show House and Gardens are:  The St. Margaret’s Center for Palliative Care (an End of Life Project), the St. Margaret’s Hospital Guild Mobile Mammmography Van, the EMBRACE program (an integrated support program for women facing cancer), and the Haven Of Hope (a support system for the families of patients in Wishard’s Level 1 Trauma Center and Fairbanks Burn Center).  We thank you.
