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.

First off, it is with great sadness that a former club member, Frank N., passed away
on May 14, 2011 at the age of 91.  Born in Winnipeg, Frank was an Royal Canadian Air Force WWII veteran.  Our thoughts and prayers are with Helen, his wife of 65 years and his family.

Finally, Department 56 has found itself a new home.  The latest Spring edition of the NCC
bulletin listed Department 56’s address as

        7400 Flying Cloud Drive, Suite 100, Eden Prairie, MN 55344. 

Note, however, that the telephone number (1-800-LIT TOWN /1-800-548-8696) and email address (mslittown@dept56.com) for their Consumer Services division remain the same.

For those who are interested in attending Department 56 collector conventions, here is some great news for you.  "MY KIND OF TOWN! Chicago 2012" has just been announced.  It will take place on September 21 to 23, 2012 in Rosemont, Illinois.  Stay tuned for more details.
