Introduction
Text-to-speech Audio
The Walker House is a local glimpse at National history. A patriotic tapestry, equal parts pop culture and anti-government protest, the reflecting Grover Walker's 30 year battle with the US government. In bold swaths of red white and blue, the house itself, is a living canvas that documents the story of Mr. Grover Walker, his inalienable rights of freedom of expression and his lifelong fight for what is right. The Walker family’s home is a must see for adventurous sightseers interested in the colorful side of local history.

For more than two decades, the Winter Park home of the Walkers was virtually a shrine for upside-down U.S. flags. The house even was painted as an upside-down flag in 1978.
