Greenwich Historical Society Announces 8th Annual Festival of Tabletop Trees

The Greenwich Historical Society is holding its Eighth Annual Festival of Tabletop Trees in its lobby beginning on Friday, November 20.

This event is a celebration that began in the 1800s when Americans would place modest-sized trees on their tables.

Twenty-seven one-of-a-kind, beautifully decorated tabletop trees will be on display and available for bidding in the Museum Lobby on Friday, November 20 from 9:00am to 5:00, on Saturday, November 21 from 11:00am to 4:00pm, and on Sunday, November 22 from 11:00am to 2:00pm.

Bidding will close at 2:00pm on Sunday, and all winners can take their trees home then.

The Greenwich Historical Society looks forward to welcoming you for a festive celebration of creativity, community, and holiday spirit.
