2013 Festival of Trees

Friday, November 29, 2013 11:00 AM - Friday, December 6, 2013 9:00 PM

Events & Fundraisers  

Presented by: FineMark National Bank & Trust  |  Hosted by: Sidney & Berne Davis Art Center  |  Benefiting: The Southwest Florida Goodwill Foundation

From angels to nutcrackers, butterflies to birds, and football helmets to fishing lures, you’re
likely to see almost anything adorning the beautiful and creative trees at the seventh annual Festival of Trees!

Our Festival is held annually at the historic Sidney & Berne Davis Art Center in Fort Myers, while this event is free, cash donations are greatly appreciated. (All proceeds benefit The Southwest Florida Goodwill Foundation.)

Our tree decorators compete for awards like the “Mayor’s Favorite,” “Most Creative,” and “People’s Choice.” Each year, decorators find more unique ways to adorn their trees: Candy, teddy bears, and even paper dolls have rested upon pine branches.  Others are decorated more traditionally, with ornaments, ribbons, and bows.  Still more are ornamented with more unconventional fare, like power tools, dog toys, and sports memorabilia.
