Museum of Coastal Carolina 5th Annual Festival of Trees

November 7 @ 10:00 am - December 31 @ 4:00 pm

Sea turtles, local veterans, teens, and others will benefit from the Museum of Coastal Carolina’s 5th annual Festival of Trees now through December 31.

Museum galleries transform into a magical Christmas wonderland, providing a family-friendly holiday activity, fostering friendly competition among 20 tree sponsors, raising funds, and providing opportunities to increase community awareness of impactful causes.

Area organizations join the Museum for the annual event and decorate themed trees for a silent auction, with the proceeds benefiting a non-profit. Once the festival concludes, the highest bidders will take home decorated trees. Each visitor receives one ballot to vote for their favorite tree, and visitors who want to increase their preferred trees’ chances of winning can purchase additional ballots. The winner of the guests’ favorite tree will be announced on December 23.

It is a delightful time to stroll through the Museum at a leisurely pace and admire trees artfully decorated while also enjoying the Museum programs and exhibits. Themes for this year’s event include ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas, “Elf” (the movie), Disney as well as coastal, nautical and traditional holiday themes.

The following area businesses and nonprofits are participating in this year’s event: ASAP Realty; Coastal Carolina Teen Outreach; Sunset Vision; Coastal Carolina Lighting; General Federation of Women’s Club, South Brunswick Islands; Ocean Isle Property Owners Association; General Federation of Women’s Club, Holden Beach; Camp UMC Mother’s Morning Out Ministries; Beach People Weddings and Photography; Coastal Carolina First Responders Association; Ocean Isle Museum Foundation Volunteers; Ocean Isle Beach Sea Turtle Protection Organization; Intracoastal Model Railroad Club; The GPS Store; Sea Coast Advantage, Gina Gore; Picture Van Go; Brunswick Family Assistance; Ocean Isle Museum Foundation Team; Bricklanding Women’s Club; Old Bridge Historical Society.
