ATOM: Aluminum Tree & Ornament Museum

More than two dozen vintage aluminum Christmas trees in mid-century colors fill a historic 1890s house in downtown Brevard. Rotating color wheels, which are spinning light filters, wash the shiny branches in shifting hues, while a Shiny Brite Forest of more than 400 classic ornaments adds to the glitter.

Nods to Elvis, poodle skirts and mid-century modern style bring the Space Age optimism of the era to life. Kids can join scavenger hunts and counting games that earn a prize. The small gift shop sells vintage ornaments and locally made items.

On December 5, after the Brevard Parade, Elvis impersonator Robert Ellis Jopson performs at 6 p.m.
