Our Christmas Tree Silent Auction features sponsored trees, beautifully decorated from local businesses, organizations, and individuals. These trees will be on display on Saturday, December 10th from 1:00 pm to 8:00 pm in the lobby area during our performances of ‘A Christmas Carol’.
Themed trees can be traditionally decorated to a theme or contain items representative of the organization sponsoring the tree. Items of interest that can be redeemed for services/goods are highly encouraged. While we encourage groups and organizations to decorate their tree themselves, items may be donated and a tree designer assigned by DCTC.
Examples of a themed tree:
- Organization: Local Coffee Shop
- Theme of Tree: Buzzing for the Holidays
- Items of Interest on Tree: Gift card to coffee shop, flavored stirring sticks, several cute mugs, packets of creamer made into ornaments, donut ornaments, etc.
- Organization: 5th Grade Team at Local Elementary
- Theme of Tree: The 12 Books of Christmas
- Items of Interest on Tree: 12 small books, bookmarks as ornaments, book pages turned ornaments, etc.
All trees must be artificial and stand between 2 ft-9 ft tall. Trees themselves may be reclaimed by the donor if requested and the bidder would be notified that only the items on the tree are part of the winning bid. All tree bids will start at 50% of the tree’s value. All proceeds will go directly to Desert Crown Theater Company to help bring future productions to the stage!
To donate a tree, please email desertcrowntheater@gmail.com and you will be provided with sign up materials as well as further information regarding setting up your tree in our lobby and picking it up if you would like the decorations removed and tree returned.
