The Ohnward Fine Arts Center is planning their 13th Annual Festival of Trees.
Last year, they had such a wonderful response to their festival — with bidding on creative trees and beautiful wreaths and theatre entertainment. Their goal again this year is to create a holiday atmosphere to be enjoyed by all those attending the many functions that will be held at the Center. The proceeds will go to the Ohnward Fine Arts Center.
