Presenting Sponsor
Walk the red carpet and stroll through the glistening light tunnel on your way to ‘Moulin Rouge,’ a Parisian dance hall in the Tea Garden featuring can-can dancers and French cabaret singers. Take photos by a classic 1938 Packard 120 Convertible Sedan, compliments of Packards International Motor Car Club. Sherman’s miniature railway, at the Sunset & Vine Station, takes you on a trip through time through the Hollywood Hills, illustrated with historic photos of Tinseltown from the Sherman Library & Gardens' archives.
Guests will also want to venture through the Sherman Shop of Horrors (watch out for life-size carnivorous ‘plants’) and encounter Trouble in Paradise in the Tropical Conservatory. Visit Santa in his Miracle on PCH workshop. Enjoy a quiet drink at The Daisy Speakeasy….shhh, Sherman Library & Gardens members only. The Garden Shop will be open and is a must-see for unique holiday gifts. Make a wish at The Wishing Tree and then head over to the fire pit to whip up your own batch of s’mores.
