25th Annual Festival of Wreaths
The Aurora Museum Foundation is proud to present the 25th Annual Festival of Wreaths! The Festival of Wreaths is an annual fundraiser organized by the Aurora Museum Foundation and Aurora History Museum and Historic Sites.
Beginning on November 5, festive wreaths created by members of the community will be displayed in the AHM Community Gallery. This year the Festival of Wreaths opening event will be part of The Grand Celebration on November 16, which also includes a celebration of the Aurora History Museum's 45th anniversary and the 10th anniversary of Trolley Trailer #610.
Support the museum by visiting, voting for your favorite wreath, and bidding on wreaths in-person or online. Silent bidding will take place on Bidding Owl, and a live auction event will occur at the Fundraiser Event. All proceeds from the online auction and the November 16th live auction event support exhibits and educational programs
