Parade of Trees Elves are seeking creative, imaginative and innovative folks to make it happen!

Love to decorate for the holiday season. Express your creativity by donating a decorated faux (the theme is up to you) faux tree/wreath.

18th Annual Parade of Trees

December 2-6

Tapley Memorial Hall

13 Page St., Danvers, MA.

We are excited to invite past and new participants carrying on this time-honored tradition, one of the first to usher in the holiday season. We hope you'll join the wonderful local businesses, organizations, schools, families and individuals whose festive displays have been delighting visitors for the past 17 years.

Use your imagination to design a tree shaped object, wreath or holiday display with a theme. Previous donors have created ladder trees with gifts of tools, a wine crate tree filled with delicious wines, or wreaths made of old sleds! Themes may include popular family movies, songs, celebrities, children's books, TV shows, favorite foods, sports or any fun craft activity!

Visit the Danvers Historical Society's website for online participation and guideline forms: https://www.danvershistory.org

If you have any questions, feel free to email us at paradeoftrees@danvershistory.org. We are accepting applications now, but space IS LIMITED, so we must hold firm to a NOVEMBER 4th DEADLINE

All trees/wreaths displayed in Tapley Memorial Hall during the event are raffled off to help support preservation projects of our historic properties, artifacts and our on-going education and public programs. All winners and display donors are listed in the historical society's website.
