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.

Something old, something new …

What’s old?

Our club is 21 years old!!! 

Our March and May meetings have came and gone but I just managed to include their highlights in our Club Event page.

Department 56 announced their mid-year Village and product introductions back in May.   Click here to see for yourself what the new introductions look like.

What’s new?image

We have a new newsletter editor – Ann.  Martha and Barry were a tough act to follow given what they had done for our newsletters for the past 2 years.  But I think Ann is doing a great job so far.   Click here to see for yourself what wonderful newsletters we have!

Department 56 apparently has re-done their web site lately showing more photographs of their products and re-organized their pages slightly different from before.   Check it out at www.department56.com and let them know if you like their re-design.

The fall will arrive on September 23rd.  It is time to take out your Halloween pieces for the season!   Better yet, go to your local retailers and see what new Halloween pieces you can add to your display.   Better hurry because you never know when the retailers will start displaying Christmas decorations.
