Holiday Village Dec. 4-16 at Gertrude C. Ford Center for the Performing Arts

December 4 - 16, 2026 Enjoy a magical atmosphere with Gingerbread houses designed by community members and civic groups, a miniature village, holiday-themed LEGO houses, a mail box for Santa, a decorated tree surrounded by gifts by a fireplace hung with stockings, and a multi-cultural display of holiday traditions from around the world, all enveloped by cheerful and inspirational music. Join us for story time with Mrs. Claus on December 5 and a visit from Santa on December 12.
