A monarch butterfly sips nectar from a bright pink zinnia in the Welty Garden. Overlaid is a square box featuring Eudora Welty’s handwriting that reads “Welty Wednesdays.” Below the handwriting, typed text announces: “Free admission every Wednesday in 2025.”
The Eudora Welty House & Garden is thrilled to celebrate 100 years on Pinehurst Street with Welty Wednesdays! 

Throughout 2025, we’re offering free admission every Wednesday, in addition to our long-standing tradition of free admission on the 13th of each month honoring Eudora’s April 13 birthday. That means weekly chances to visit for free as we mark this incredible milestone! 

House tours are given at 9 & 11 a.m. and 1 & 3 p.m. Email us at info@eudoraweltyhouse.com to reserve your spot and experience the magic of Welty’s world during this special centennial year!
