This year’s Festival of Trees examines cultural celebrations from around the world. “A World of Celebration” explores festivals of light from around the world, from Nebuta Matsuri in Japan and the Lantern Festivals of China to St. Lucia‘s Day in Sweden and Posados in Mexico. School children from all over Etowah County are learning about a specific festival and creating ornaments and decorations that reflect the traditions they are learning about.
