Festival of Trees is an annual highlight of the holiday season showcasing a juried collection of trees and mantles displayed throughout the museum’s galleries, upstairs and down. This year’s Festival opens earlier and stays open even longer into 2021! In addition, outdoor displays and light will be even grander than years before.
Our 2020 Holiday Preview party is like no other before it, too! Featuring a “Winter Wonderland” theme with cocktails, music, and hors d'oeuvres held outdoors with fire pits on Morven’s back lawn surrounded by an array of holiday lights. Please dress warmly, wear comfortable weather appropriate footwear and remember your mask for the party. The Museum will also be open to view the indoor holiday decorations with masking and at safe capacity limits.
Please note, we are following all local, state and CDC protocols related to gatherings, food and beverage service.
All proceeds from this evening benefit the exhibitions and programs at Morven Museum & Garden
