All trees and wreaths at the event will be available for purchase to benefit the museum’s educational and life-long learning programs.

“We love bringing to life this annual tradition that not only brings joy to so many, but also raises money for the museum and educational efforts,” said Allison Hudson, President of the Council of 101. “Through the Council’s events, we donated a record $510,000 to OMA this year. The work is all worth it, seeing the holiday spirit among guests as they visit the event.”
