Buttonwoods Museum is holding its 15th annual “Christmas At the Buttonwoods: A Festival of Trees,” from Saturday, Nov. 26 to Sunday, Dec. 11.

A display of decorated trees, wreaths, and centerpieces, donated by individuals or local businesses, will be raffled off with proceeds benefitting the museum. The event includes a family day with crafts, a visit from Santa, a senior day and performances.

“The opening gala allows visitors to be the first to see which trees were awarded prizes and to get the first chance at bidding on their favorite tree or wreath,” a statement reads.

Hours are from 12 to 8 p.m., Wednesdays and Thursdays; 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., Fridays and Saturdays; and 12-5 p.m., Sundays at the museum, 240 Water St., Haverhill.
