The members of the Greater Southlake Women’s Society are proud to announce the 2nd Annual Festival of Trees. This event will showcase a spectacular display of Christmas trees and other holiday items including wreaths, tabletop décor and unique items — all of which will be available for purchase during the event. Also on display will be the official 2009 Festival of Trees artwork by internationally renowned and local artist Trish Biddle.

 

The Gallery of Trees will serve as a backdrop for an array of events for the entire community, culminating with the City of Southlake and Southlake Town Square’s Tree-lighting Event on Saturday, November 20.

 

Families from near and far will enjoy an array of festivities and create a heart-warming and memorable holiday experience during this exciting season of giving.

 

Along with the tree lighting event at Southlake Town Square, the Greater Southlake Women’s Society are pleased to present Breakfast with Santa and Radio Disney on Saturday, November 21 from 9-11 am and Gallery Open House on Saturday, November 21 from 1-4 pm & Sunday, November 22 from 12-3 pm.

 

Sure to delight children young and old, the Breakfast with Santa will certainly become a cherished holiday tradition for the entire family. In addition to photo opportunities with Santa, Radio Disney will also be there with activities designed to entertain and awe the children amid the spectacular holiday setting. Breakfast Tickets are $20 per child (children under 6 months are free) and $10 per adult.

 

And then stroll through the Ballroom inside the Hilton Hotel in Southlake Town Square and marvel at the stunning collection of Christmas décor for the Gallery Open House. Each item in the Gallery will be available for purchase during the Festival of Trees, just in time for your holiday parties. This dazzling display is certain to make your family’s spirits bright this holiday season. Gallery Open House admission is $5 for ages 12+, $1 for those under 12.
