Delight in the Festival of Trees
The Indiana Historical Society gets into the holiday spirit with its annual Festival of Trees. Imaginative displays, unexpected themes, and seasonal music transform the History Center into a festive showcase with plenty of details worth a closer look.
Every year, around Christmas time, the Indiana Historical Society hosts the marvelous Festival of Trees. Eight decadent and elaborately adorned trees are packed into the grand building of the History Center, with each tree decorated following a different theme. In the past, trees have been hung upside down, made from unconventional materials, and there has even been a virtual reality tree. This year, the Indiana Historical Society will deck out their 30-foot showstopper in an Indiana theme. On Nov. 20, Nov. 27, Dec. 4, Dec. 11, and Dec. 18, live musicians will play Christmas music among the lit trees. The festival of the trees will take place from Nov 16, 2018 - Jan 5, 2019, from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. at the History Center.
