What You’ll See at the Visitors Center

There’s so much to see at the Hallmark Visitors Center. Interactive displays and fascinating exhibits give you a glimpse into the rich history and creative spirit of Hallmark. And stop by our theatre to watch a film that showcases Hallmark’s 100+ year history.

JC Hall Christmas Trees

For years Hallmark employees fashioned giant Christmas cards as holiday gifts for Hallmark founder J.C. Hall. In 1966, the tradition evolved into creating and decorating a life-sized Christmas tree. Each year the tree was unveiled in Mr. Hall’s office during the last working days before Christmas.

The tradition continued for 17 years until Mr. Hall’s death in 1982. See the amazing tree collection.

With the push of a button, you’ll watch our bow machine create a star-shaped bow you can take home as a souvenir.

Since 1984, together Hallmark and Crayola have been stirring imaginations, emboldening young thinkers and dreamers, and bringing out the magic in all of us.
