Decorating or making a tree is a creative way to promote your organization or business and support the museum. It could be a yearly family tradition, business team-building event, or non-profit celebration. All the details are on the google form, or call the museum at 715-232-8685.

Decorate a Memorial Tree
We create a quiet space for reflection, gathering and sharing memories of someone special.
Use favorite ornaments, a meaningful theme, photographs or other mementos. You can bring your own artificial tree, or use one provided by the museum.
Memorial trees are separate from the trees decorated as part of the general event, and will not be a part of the tree voting. The memorial room will be available for visiting free of charge through January 2.
Be a vendor at the Artisan Market
You can apply to be a vendor! Click on the button for the application form and details, or call the museum to talk with someone directly.
