Parade of Trees: A Festive Celebration of Community and Creativity

The Parade of Trees has quickly become one of Art Reach’s most beloved holiday traditions, bringing a fresh and festive spirit to the season while supporting the arts in our region. This annual event features beautifully decorated Christmas trees, wreaths, and other holiday items, designed and donated by local businesses, individuals, and organizations.

At the heart of the Parade of Trees is a festive raffle, where guests have the chance to win these stunning creations and bring home a piece of holiday magic. In addition to the raffle, the event offers various activities and experiences to delight attendees of all ages.

Filled with festive displays, seasonal activities, entertainment, and plenty of holiday cheer, the Parade of Trees is a joyful celebration that brings the community together. Guests can admire beautifully decorated trees and wreaths, enjoy the festive atmosphere, and make holiday memories with family and friends, all while supporting Art Reach of Mid Michigan and helping keep the arts alive and accessible in our community.
