FORT MYERS, Fla. - eTradeWire -- The glow of holiday lights returns to the heart of the River District as the 19th Annual Festival of Trees fills the Sidney & Berne Davis Art Center with color, creativity, and community spirit. From December 4 through 7, the grand halls of the art center will be transformed into a winter wonderland where each tree tells a story of generosity.

Every tree is designed and decorated by local businesses, filled with gifts valued between $1,750 and $2,000, and raffled off to raise money for Goodwill Industries of Southwest Florida and the Sidney & Berne Davis Art Center. The event supports year-round programs that bring art, education, and opportunity to people throughout our region. Raffle tickets are available for $10 each, 3 for $25, 10 for $50, or 25 for $100, and all proceeds stay local.
