More than 50 classrooms, youth groups, church clubs and service organizations participated in the 2007 festival.

Also during December, the Stanley Newton Victorian Room will be decorated in Victorian holiday style.

And in conjunction with the Monroe County World War II special exhibit, a 1940s-era tree and other seasonal displays from that decade will be shown.
