The annual singing Christmas tree will begin at 6:30 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, Dec. 2-3 on the grounds of Pioneer Museum.
The event is free but donations will be accepted. Attendees may enter the museum grounds via the side gate on Milam Street, and everyone is encouraged to bring a lawn chair.
The 30-foot-tall lighted Christmas tree will be the setting for a volunteer community chorus to present a family concert sponsored by the Gillespie County Historical Society and Fredericksburg United Methodist Church and made possible by a grant from the Pedernales Creative Arts Alliance.
The tree is a giant metal structure in the shape of a Christmas tree. Greenery and lights will be added to make the effect complete.
The singers will stand on the tree at different heights for the one-hour concert featuring traditional music, German carols and sing-alongs.
In German, the project is called Der Singende Weihnachtsbaum.
To help fund the attraction, several local residents have made donations for underwriting.
Pioneer Museum is located at 325 West Main Street.
