Christmas Trees Through the Ages Exhibit at LefurgeyPut the Magic of Christmas in your 2024 holiday season with a visit to the Christmas Trees Through The Ages Exhibit presented by Culture Summerside and Wyatt Heritage Properties Inc.
The exhibit transforms the main floor of the 1867 Lefurgey Cultural Centre into an evergreen forest of decorated Christmas trees that tell how the tree became a central part of Christmas celebrations. It explores the industry that has grown out of the tradition and the ever-changing fashions that keep it going.
The exhibit, first launched in 2019, has new trees added each year. The Magic of Christmas: Christmas Trees Through The Ages engages all five senses and will stir old memories while contributing to the forming of new ones. The presenters created the exhibit to give viewers the pleasure of the season without the expense.
