Festival of Wreaths Opening Night
Opening night will look a little different this year due to COVID-19 protocols. This year, the event will be streamed live on Facebook and YouTube and features a tour of the available wreaths, the history of Santa, told by the Jolly Old Elf, music and additional entertainment. Tune in to the YouTube link below at 5:00 pm on November 12 to be part of the magic live. The video will be available throughout the holiday season if you want to tune it again or at a different time.
What will not change is the always colorful and unique wreaths that fill the halls of the History Center and the opportunity to purchase them through the online silent auction. Proceeds benefit History Center programming.
