The Kora Shriners annual FEZtival of Trees at the Kora Temple in Lewiston was not crowded Friday afternoon as it opened to in-person visitors this year after going online-only last year due to COVID-19. To attend this year, tickets must be purchased online at korashriners.org/feztival. Because of the 100 person limit in the facility, Shriners are scheduling blocks of one hour visits. The festival runs until Saturday, Nov. 27.

FEZtival of Trees to open Friday, but without online raffle

A legal glitch prevented Lewiston's Kora Shrine Temple from repeating the successful online fundraiser it held last year and hopes to hold again in the future.
