Our Story
The Festival of Trees, held annually at the Saco Museum, is a beloved holiday tradition for the community. Now in it’s 21st year, volunteers work tirelessly to transform our galleries into an enchanted, sparkling wonderland of beautifully decorated trees, each with it’s own special theme. Guests can wander through the museum to appreciate the trees, bid on artwork from esteemed local artists and artisans, and drop raffle tickets into one of many boxes for a chance to win exciting prizes donated by local businesses and individuals. With additional events for adults and children, it’s a wonderful way to kick off the holiday season and get into the festive spirit! 
2025 Festival of Trees
Our 2025 Festival of Trees was truly a winter wonderland! We can’t wait to see what next year has in store!
