"Toys Through Time" is the theme for Ruthmere's 2026 Holiday Tours! Designers and organizations throughout Elkhart have been invited to decorate rooms in the house once again in this friendly competition -- this time, using vintage or antique toys. Each room will have a different toy-related theme, and visitors will be able to vote for their favorite! The winner will get a donation to a local non-profit of their choice, which will be included on the voting sheets. Make sure to visit the Havilah Beardsley House, too, which will also have toys on display!
