    The North Dakota Council on the Arts, along with the Governor’s Office and Facility Management, invites the general public to the Lighting Ceremony for the 2010 North Dakota State Christmas Tree. The ceremony will be conducted by Governor John Hoeven and First Lady Mikey Hoeven on Monday, December 6 at 5:00 p.m. in the Memorial Hall of the Capitol Building in Bismarck. Live entertainment will be provided by Joel Gilbertson, pianist; a brass ensemble of the Bismarck-Mandan Symphony Orchestra; and Dakota Stage Ltd. will perform an excerpt from “A Christmas Carol” directed by Michele Renner and Tom Chase. The ceremony is free and open to the public. Refreshments will be served following the ceremony.

    The tree will be decorated with ornaments handmade by children, students, artists and craftspeople from all over North Dakota, as has been the tradition since 1981. This year 240 ornaments were donated to the State tree. A descriptive listing of the ornaments will be available at the ceremony.
