Christmas Tree Lighting

Sponsored by Brightspeed, Carter Bank, Press Glass and State Farm Chip Wyatt.

Piedmont Arts will kick off the holiday season with the annual lighting of the Art Garden Christmas tree from 4-6 p.m., Thursday, Dec. 4, in the Gravely-Lester Art Garden.

Enjoy holiday music, a visit from Santa, themed crafts and a snack of cookies and hot chocolate. This event is free and open to the public. It is sponsored by Brightspeed and Carter Bank. 

Much like the sculptures in the Art Garden, the Christmas tree is a work of art. It is created each year by Ian Hogg using more than 3,000 lights. The tree will be lit at sunset and brighten the Art Garden through New Year’s Day. The tree is sponsored by Press Glass and Chip Wyatt of State Farm.
 
The Gravely-Lester Art Garden is located at 207 Starling Ave. It is free and open to the public from dawn to dusk each day.

Admission Free
