Established in 1994, Trillium Village Collectors Club is one of Canada's oldest Department 56 collector clubs.  We are based in Toronto but have club members all over the province of Ontario.

The objective of our club is to provide a meeting place for club members to share the joy and excitement of their hobbies and to share display ideas featuring their favourite collectibles.  All collectors and retailers of Department 56 Village and Holiday products are welcome to join the club.  Club membership also includes an informative newsletter mailed physically or electronically to each club member every other month.  Membership form is available for download on the "About Us" page.

Trillium Village Collectors Club is a not-for-profit organization.  Although we appreciate support from our retailer members, the club is not affiliated with any Department 56 retailers.

Enesco Canada



Happy New Year!   Hope everyone had an exciting start of 2010.   Apparently, Jay Leno did not but Department 56 did.  :)

Currently, when you navigate to the Department 56 web site at http://www.department56.com/ on your computer, you will now be redirected to the Enesco’s main web site at http://www.enesco.com/.  But nonetheless, you can still click through a couple of web pages to get to the ever familiar Department 56 main web page.  In case you are not aware, Enesco has been the parent company of Department 56 since April 2009.  To learn more about this acquisition, go to the News and Events section of Enesco web site’s main page and click on “Enesco Acquires Department 56 from Lenox”.

Speaking of Enesco, when you are at the main page of Enesco’s web site, click on the Canadian flag icon to enter Enesco Canada’s web site.  There, you can find various lines of Enesco collectibles available in Canada and a store locator feature that helps you to locate retailers that carry these products.  Unfortunately, this feature currently is not able to search for stores that carry Department 56 products.  Hopefully, Enesco Canada will update their web site soon to provide this capability for us Department 56 collectors.
