Wreath Festival

Express your creativity while helping your community by purchasing a wreath for $25 from Founders Hall, decorating it and then donating it back to Founders Hall to sell at its biennial Wreath Festival. Holiday or seasonal, colorful or subtle, sophisticated or whimsical, the wreath design is up to you. Founders Hall will enter your creation into a judging, display it throughout the festival, and sell it. All proceeds will support life-long learning fitness and fun for over 3,600 Founders Hall members.

The Wreath Festival will open with a holiday party on Friday, November 16 and continue through Sunday, November 18. Shoppers will find wreaths, garlands, swags, fresh miniature boxwood trees and a boutique stocked with holiday gifts, home décor items, kitchen goods, jewelry, accessories and more.

Whether you’re an individual or representing a business or organization, Founders Hall will acknowledge your gift on the wreath’s tag and at the event. Admission to the Wreath Festival is free; opening party tickets are $60. Wreath designers who buy a ticket to the opening party will receive an additional ticket free of charge. Founders Hall is a donor-supported education and recreation center for people age 60 and older. For more information or to buy a wreath, call Cindy Nesbitt at Founders Hall, 203-431-7000.
