Martha’s Vineyard Hospital will celebrate its annual Trees of Lights ceremony at 4 p.m. Wednesday afternoon in the hospital lobby.

An Island tradition since 1995, this year’s ceremony will differ slightly from the past. Multiple trees, each donated by an individual in honor or in memory of a loved one, will be lit around the hospital campus. World War II veteran Fred B. (Ted) Morgan Jr. will light the trees. Mr. Morgan is a World War II veteran, former Edgartown selectman and former Martha’s Vineyard Hospital administrator.

The event is free and open to the public.
