Annual Members Holiday Lighting Ceremony November 24, 2014 (6pm-9pm)
Exclusive Members-Only Holiday Event
Kick off the holiday season with us. Santa, music, merriment. A few refreshments, too. A special members-only event inside Henry Ford Museum to kick off to the holiday season. Santa arrives this evening to light the towering Christmas tree in the Museum Plaza. And that’s just the beginning of the evening’s merriment. There are photos with Santa, of course, and a souvenir photo frame. Michigan Café will open at 5:30pm so you can enjoy dinner or a snack before the door open for a great evening of holiday festivities.
