Each year, Longwood Gardens is completely transformed indoors and out for one of our most iconic seasons: A Longwood Christmas. From botanical splendor to retro throwbacks to magic in all its forms, each of our holiday displays has been inspired by a different theme. During this class, led by Longwood Associate Director of Display Jim Sutton, take a step back and explore many of these themes of Christmas past.

Sutton gives a behind-the-scenes look at the magic of A Longwood Christmas and explores the extensive processes that go into making these one-of-a-kind displays possible—from initial planning to installation—year after year after year.
