The Elmhurst Memorial Hospital Foundation will host its annual Love Lights Tree Lighting and Holiday Reception on Wednesday, Dec. 4 from 5 – 7 p.m. in East Lobby of Elmhurst Hospital, 155 E. Brush Hill Rd.

Love Lights is the Foundation’s annual welcome of the holiday season that was established to recognize a caregiver, colleague, volunteer, physician or special person in a meaningful way.

The event will feature The CoverGirls Violin Show, carolers, hot chocolate and sweet treats, and at 5:30 p.m., the lighting of the trees in the Central Garden at Elmhurst Hospital’s Main Campus. Each light symbolically commemorates a special person who has touched a life, or a loved one who has passed away.
