Giving back to the community
We are calling on your generosity to brighten up the holiday season for those in need by collecting non-perishable goods to be distributed to organizations on both sides of the river. What is involved? Simply bring in a non-perishable good and place it in the box provided!
When you donate a non-perishable food item, you can be entered into a draw for a chance to press the button to illuminate the tree!
We greatly appreciate your support during this festive season.
November 21, 2024, to January 12, 2025
Come admire the Museum’s dazzling outdoor tree throughout the holiday season. Adorned with thousands of lights, the tree will illuminate the Museum’s Plaza until January 12, 2025.
