Festival of Trees: Aquatica

Berkshire Museum is proud to once again present Festival of Trees, a community celebration of creativity over the holidays! This year's theme is all about the sea, river, and wetland critters that we know and love.

Our goal: create a community-built aquarium while we await completion of a new space. The canvas: trees, of course!

This year, the museum will be undergoing renovations, which will include a first-ever holistic redesign and expansion of our beloved aquarium. While we transition from current space to new, we decided to put out a call to the community: let’s build an aquarium of trees, ranging from amphibians and reptiles, to fish and mollusks.

For some inspiration, you could visit the aquarium and find an animal that stands out to you, celebrate one of many beloved sea-critters in pop culture, or showcase some of the incredible creatures that we find in our wetlands here in the Berkshires. The best trees will be those that think outside the tide pool – so get creative and have fun!
