Festival of Trees at
the Fairmont Olympic Hotel
Benefiting Seattle Children's Autism Center
and uncompensated care at Seattle Children's
Hospital, the Festival of Trees is produced by
the Dr. Forrest L. Flashman Guild. The creation
and selling of these magical trees has been a
well-loved holiday tradition since 1978. While
the events and activities have evolved over the
years, one thing remains constant: the ever
increasing need for funds to support uncompensated care, so that no child is ever turned
away due to their parent's lack of ability to pay.
Each tree is designed and decorated by guild volunteers, many of whom are professional
decorators and is dedicated to a courageous Seattle Children's Hospital patient.
Whether you're looking for ideas for your own tree this year or just want to gawk at some amazing
showstoppers, start your holiday season off with this time-honored tradition. Festival of Trees
