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.

Helen Murphy’s post-funeral reception

On February 14, more than 30 TVCC club members attended Helen Murphy’s funeral service. We gathered to pay tributes to Helen Murphy and to celebrate what a wonderful friend and person Helen was. At the same time, we showed our support and respect to Don and the Murphy family.

After the service, a reception was held at a nearby legion hall where everyone mingled and celebrated Helen’s life.
