Experience a one-of-a-kind installation of dozens of stunning story trees crafted by talented local volunteers and organizations, each featuring elaborate hand-made decorations inspired by a picture book. A centerpiece of the Museum’s community-focused programing, this popular annual event celebrates children’s books and a love of reading as families explore new story trees, sit and read together, or undertake a festive scavenger hunt.
Now in its 30th year, in 2025 Family Trees will feature a mix of classic children’s books – from Goodnight Moon to the Very Hungry Caterpillar – and inspiring new books, many by local authors.
