Taos’ Annual Festival of Trees and Wreaths
Helps Those Who Help Others
The annual Festival of Trees and Wreaths in Taos wraps up community giving and support of local non-profits all in one festive, enchanting evening. The Festival of Trees and Wreaths in Taos – when area businesses decorate wreaths and trees in support of a favorite local nonprofit organization - is Friday, Dec. 3 from 6-9 p.m., at El Monte Sagrado Resort and Spa on E. Kit Carson Road.
The event – now in its 10th year – has raised more than $200,000 to benefit local non-profits. This year's goal is $30,000.
Decorated trees and wreaths are up for bid through Friday, closing during the night of the festival at 8 p.m. Winning bidders can either keep the tree or wreath or donate it to Community Against Violence, which will see that it goes to a needy family in the Taos area.
The party features hors d'oeuvres, beer and wine, and entertainment by Jimmy Stadler. Admission is $20 per adult; children are free. All admission proceeds go to the Museum Association of Taos, which uses the money for its educational programs.
