Each year the Concord Museum, in Concord, Mass, puts up themed Christmas trees. The trees are based on children's literature and copies of the books are displayed next to each tree. The thirty plus trees are located throughout the museum and range in all shapes and sizes. The trees and stories change each year. Admission this year ran at $15 per adult, $6/child, and children 3 under being free. Parking is street parking along Lexington St and is also free. (Be careful crossing the street, cars drive very quickly on Lexington St). The museum opens the exhibit just after Thanksgiving and it stays open through January 1. Throughout the duration of the exhibit, various authors of the books will visit, sometimes characters from the books, and other events take place. Checking the website will give you the annual calendar.
Concord center, just down the street is also a quaint, lovely little town center which is great for Christmas shopping or wandering around. Metered street parking is available there.
