Troy-Hayner Cultural Center
Celebrate Christmas at the Hayner Center
With an evening of music, decadent desserts and holiday tradition as we mark the Center’s 50th anniversary.
Wander through the mansion with dessert and wine in hand while enjoying a first look at this year’s holiday décor. Meet some of the decorators behind the displays and discover the inspiration and details tucked throughout the rooms.
Then, gather in the Ballroom for a special Christmas concert performed by familiar Hayner faces. Director David Wion will be at the piano, joined by Assistant Director Rachael Boezi, former Director Linda Lee Jolly, Committee member David Fair and Music Manager Eric Knorr for an evening of favorite carols and sing-alongs.
Desserts, Wine & a Little Something to Take Home
The evening includes a decadent dessert buffet prepared by Starry Dreams Catering, along with one drink ticket for a glass of wine (more available for purchase). Each guest will also receive a custom Hayner Center Christmas ornament, created especially for the occasion.
December 4 also marks the release of the book titled The Troy-Hayner Cultural Center: An Elegant Mansion Transformed for the Community (1976–2026). Guests who preordered the 50th anniversary book may pick up their copy that evening, and copies will be available for purchase.
