“It’s showtime once more on Nantucket with an island tradition that has come to mark the official beginning of the holiday season. The Nantucket Historic Association annual Festival of Trees has returned to the Whaling Museum for another year, transforming the historic building into a winter wonderland. The festival is a celebration of island talent, where professional decorators, creative individuals, island nonprofits, local merchants, and children join together, each to decorate one of more than 75 trees with a unique theme.” Nantucket About Town

“Hooked on the Place We Call Home”
