Celebrate the second edition of Longwood Gardens Christmas by Longwood P.S. du Pont Fellow Colvin Randall with a fascinating look at Longwood’s past and present holiday celebrations.
Randall discusses how our founders Pierre S. and Alice du Pont initiated a tradition of holiday sharing that continues to this day, while Longwood Associate Director of Display Design Jim Sutton—who has been planning our A Longwood Christmas displays since 2008, explores more recent times. Longwood Gardens Christmas was first published in 2010. This new, expanded edition covers every A Longwood Christmas through 2024—making it a must-have for every Longwood enthusiast.
Longwood Gardens Christmas will be available for purchase at The Garden Shop prior to and driving the event. Randall will sign copies following the talk.
