Winter Wonderland Returns to Headhouse

South Street Headhouse District released details today about its annual holiday hoopla at the Shambles — complete with a tree and menorah lighting, Santa on a fire truck and a holiday market for gift hunters.
Winter Wonderland will take place on Sunday, December 6th. The festivities begin kind of late in the afternoon: at 3 pm with the Headhouse Holiday Market, where local vendors will set up booths with handmade goods and food and drink from area restaurants. At 4:30 pm, organizers will make history by lighting a menorah on location for the first time ever.
For the little ones, there will be arts and craft workshops throughout the day. Santa Claus will arrive on a fire truck at 5 pm, before plopping down for some photo opps. (Parents are asked to bring their own cameras.) His arrival will be celebrated with dancing and live musical performances until around 6:15, when everyone will gather for the tree-lighting ceremony at the south-facing end of the Shambles.
Looking for a way to give back this season? Bring an unwrapped toy with you and drop it in one of the collection bins under the Shambles. They will be donated to area kids in need via the Salvation Army.
