Marking its 15th anniversary, the beloved Fernbank event, Winter Wonderland: Celebrations & Traditions Around the World, returns! This exhibit is a must-see. Witnessing the array of celebrations, cultures, and traditions from around the world is truly beautiful. Experiencing this with friends is an unforgettable moment for family and friends alike. I highly recommend it. The holiday music is welcoming, the trees are beautifully decorated with international themes, and it broadens our perspective on places we have yet to visit but hope to someday. It is pure holiday joy and inspiration!
Beginning Saturday, November 23rd, you can stroll through two floors adorned with trees and displays that showcase cultural celebrations, events, and traditions from all over the world. This artistic representation of cultural festivities highlights key aspects of each celebration, telling unique stories chosen by cultural partners through art, crafts, symbols, and ornamental displays.
