ONONDAGA COUNTY, N.Y. -- The Holiday Festival of Trees has returned to Syracuse, but this year, it's at a new location. Usually, the trees are on display at the Everson Museum in downtown, but the museum is currently hosting a French art exhibit, so the display moved to ShoppingTown Mall in DeWitt.

More than 100 trees, wreaths and special displays were donated, all of which are now on sale.

"I think the most fun thing about the Festival of Trees is that it is such a tradition for so many people. It is the start of their holiday season. We get to see people return year after year to see what is new and creative ideas the contributors come up with," said Sarah Massett, Everson Museum Public Relations Director.

You can find the display at the former BonTon store in the mall.
