Elegant. Luxurious. Opulent. This year’s Trees of Historic Bethlehem are dripping with finery! This dazzling array of Christmas trees, beautifully decorated by the Bethlehem Garden Club and local volunteers, is sure to awe and inspire.

Journey across three historic sites, where over 25 trees display gorgeous decorations through January 7, 2024. Your pass includes admission to the Unspun: Stories of Silk exhibition. Silk, the most luxurious material on the planet, is a great companion for these elegant trees. This holiday season, see the multi-site exhibition everyone’s talking about in a different light with rarely exhibited items from our collections, including silk mittens, hats, and fur-lined coats!
