Guests ate and drank in the company of lavishly-designed Christmas trees as well as sparkling ornaments that lined the museum walls. One of the wings was home to the Gingerbread Village, a collection of intricately designed, edible gingerbread houses from local pastry chefs. Those gingerbread houses, as well as the numerous Christmas trees and throughout the museum, were available for purchase by guests. All proceeds from the event went to the Orlando Museum of Art.
