Festival of the Trees Better Design - Better World - Better Lives
FIU’s annual Festival of the Trees has become a South Florida tradition, marking the start of the holiday season for close to 25 years. Since its inception, the Festival of the Trees has united the region’s premier design professionals in this celebration of the holiday season’s shapes, colors, light and poetry. The event showcases the unique creativity of the community by engaging local, nation and international designers in the design of holiday trees made from every imaginable material. For our 24rd year, the Festival focusing on positive change and making a difference through design. In keeping with the spirit of the Festival of the Trees, the point of departure for the design must be representative of the holiday spirit, but does not have to be a tree. This year we would like the designers to address 'doing the right thing' through their design, use of materials, concept etc. The trees will be auctioned at the event, so that they can be re-used as holiday decoration by the winning bidders.
