The Junior League of Duluth hosts an annual Festival of Trees Arts, Crafts, and Gifts show every November.

This event has become one of Duluth’s largest “pop-up” shopping experiences that’s more popular than ever with the decline of traditional shopping malls. It’s a great opportunity to find unique items while supporting small businesses.

You can expect to find over 170 vendors, including retail stores and non-profits. They offer a wide variety of products such as handcrafted gifts, tasty treats, home essentials, professional artwork, jewelry, books, apparel, and health and beauty products – there’s truly something for everyone. Plus, Santa Claus often drops by for fun photo opportunities at no cost. And don’t miss out on exciting raffles with fantastic prizes or the chance to meet our members working behind the scenes who coordinate this event.

The Festival of Trees is not just about shopping; it’s a fundraiser at heart. The name comes from the festive display and auction of decorated mini-holiday trees. All proceeds support the Junior League of Duluth’s mission to advance women’s leadership and make a meaningful impact in the community through volunteerism, collaboration, and training.
