Indiana Modern’s 18th annual Back to the Future tour presents five outstanding Mid-Century Modern properties in Anderson dating from 1958 to 1972, including private residences and a standout Modernist office building.

Mid-Century Modern houses often incorporate walls of windows, skylights, and other features that maximize views of surrounding nature, blurring the boundaries between indoors and outdoors. Tour stops include the following:

The 1958 home of Steven and Darlene Tague on Beauvoir Circle
The 1962 home of Logan and Kayla Whitesell on Overlook Drive
The 1964 home of Roger and Susie Reed on Van Buskirk Road
The 1972 home of Kyle and Wendy Gerard on East 500 North
The 1964 former Church of God Home Mission and Church Extension office on University Boulevard, now home to PlainSong Music Services

On the day of the event, check-in at tour headquarters (Anderson Community School Corporation, 1600 Hillcrest Ave., Anderson) to exchange your Eventbrite receipt for a tour program with map that will guide you during the go-at-your-own-pace tour. Transportation between most sites is on your own with select properties accessible by shuttle only due to limited street parking. Your tour program received at check-in will provide detailed parking or shuttle instructions for each tour site. Attendees should plan two hours to enjoy the full experience.

Note on accessibility: Some sites require navigating stairs to enter or transition between levels and are therefore not fully accessible to all. Questions? Contact central@indianalandmarks.org.

Back to the Future is presented by Indiana Modern, an affinity group of Indiana Landmarks that works to preserve and promote the best of mid-twentieth century architecture, design, and landscapes across the state. Learn more.
