The annual Festival Of Trees, in its 20th year, is the largest private fundraiser each year for children's programs at Hospice of the Florida Suncoast and UPARC Foundation. It fills downtown Clearwater's Harborview Center with 125 professionally decorated trees (which are for sale), plus 2-foot tabletop trees for sale, a gingerbread village, lots of entertainment and Santa.
The Sugar Plum Shop features arts and crafts from local hobbyists, and 30 percent of each sale goes to the charities.
The festival is open to the public noon to 5 p.m. today, 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Friday and Saturday and noon to 5 p.m. Sunday. The Harborview Center is at 300 Cleveland St. Admission is $6 adults, $5 seniors, $4 ages 3-16. (727) 712-3993.
