Thu 12/1 @ 5-8PM
Enjoy some bucolic, small-town holiday charm in the village of Peninsula Thursday when it hosts its Candlelight Walk. You can imagine you’re in one of those hokey, heartwarming Hallmark holiday specials as you join others for the luminaria-lit walk and the 6pm tree-lighting on the Bronson Church green. There’ll be caroling by singers from Woodridge and Kent Roosevelt high school to enhance the holiday spirit and a program inside the church.
After that you can drop in the Peninsula Art Academy for cider and cookies, and holiday ornament making for kids, as well as some shopping at the Holiday Art Show where you’ll find a ton of items created by local artists, including paintings, photos, prints, jewelry, ceramics, art glass, fiber and enamel art, cards and ornaments. Peninsula shops will be open late for holiday shopping as well.
