It is the season for – Christmas trees!.
The Mariners team is excited to be planning a contribution to Treefest Bristol 2024
What is Treefest?
Treefest is a spectacular festive display of Christmas trees held within the splendid gothic church of St Mary Redcliffe.
Treefest is an opportunity for local people, schools, businesses, charities, community groups and other organisations to decorate a tree and display it in the atmospheric gothic surrounds of St Mary Redcliffe. It’s a good opportunity to tell our 1000s of visitors about your organisation for free, while helping to raise money for local charities.
So far, our research administrator, Abi Freeman, has bought a tree and acquired bunting from our project partner, the Hull History Centre. We are having fun creating maritime-themed decorations, with a research cutting edge.
Look out for more upates on Treefest in coming weeks.
