Decorated Tables
The Opera House will display an array of beautifully decorated tables. Individuals share their creative inspiration in designing stunning tablescapes using a variety of dishware (heirloom, vintage, and contemporary), holiday decor, serving pieces, and linens. The Blake Room will showcase the former Michigan National Bank conference room table, set for a feast. If you are interested in decorating a table, please contact Diane at 517/925-1114.
Decorated Trees
A forest of decorated trees will have grown in the Grand Hall of the Opera House during the Holiday Traditions Tour. Always delightful to tour, the trees come from individuals, community groups, and businesses. The trees come to us in all sizes so no tree is too small! Please contact Sue at 517/420-4273 if you’d like to share your decorated tree during the tour.
