Holidays At The White House 1996
As in past years, the First Family invited specific groups and individuals
from around the country to create ornaments to adorn the White House Christmas
Tree. Altogether, over 3,000 individuals volunteered their time and talents
to make the 1996 holiday season at the White House a special one.
This year, 100 wood craft artisans, 300 professional ballet companies and
350 members of the American Needlepoint Guild and the Embroiderers Guild of
America were invited to create ornaments depicting characters or scenes
from the ballet. Fifty volunteer decorators from around the country donated
their time and talents to decorate the White House during their busiest
time -- the weekend after Thanksgiving. For many of these volunteers, this has
been a tradition for over 10 years.
Eighty entertainment groups will perform at the White House for the 1996
holiday season.
