About this event

Saluting Our Veterans: A First Look at Our Military Trees

Wednesday, November 11, 2026 1–4 pm Robbins Hunter Museum Free Admission

This Veterans Day, the Robbins Hunter Museum will begin its holiday season with Saluting Our Veterans: A First Look at Our Military Trees, presented as part of Granville’s America 250 commemoration.

Be among the first to experience more than a dozen decorated trees and displays honoring our nation’s veterans and exploring the people and moments that have shaped American history.

This year’s patriotic decorations will highlight America’s military history, Ohio’s presidents and first ladies, and the service and sacrifice of generations of Americans. The Long Room will also draw inspiration from the Civil War-era Sanitary Fairs, when communities came together to raise money and gather supplies for soldiers.

Join us as we honor those who have served while opening a meaningful and memorable holiday season at the Robbins Hunter Museum. Veterans who attend will receive a paper poppy as a small token of appreciation for their service.

The event is free and open to the public. The museum’s America 250 holiday trees and decorations will remain on view during regular museum hours throughout the holiday season.
