Donor Forest

Donors who made a minimum $50 gift prior to January 2013 will be recognized in a new donor forest, centrally located in the Festival Village. Inspired by our natural surroundings and in response to the need for more shade, this commemorative forest celebrates all of our donors who supported the redevelopment of our Festival home.

The donor forest is not your typical donor “wall.” Here, you’ll find the names of donors etched on the trunks of sculptured trees designed by our architecture team. These sculptures will be surrounded by newly planted trees that will grow and add additional shade and beauty to this special place over the years. This permanent feature of our Site Redevelopment Project provides recognition for all of our campaign donors and will be a part of a legacy that will be seen and celebrated for years to come.
