Here’s what’s on tap:
Light Up Clermont - Cookies & Cocoa Walk
Light Up Clermont looks a little different this year but still offers some festive fun.
Canterbury Shaker Village, 288 Shaker Road, is helping New Hampshire discover a bit of holiday magic with its own wintry wonderland this month.
âA Magic Journey through the North Shop Barn,â set to run from 1 to 5 p.m. Friday through Dec. 23 and Dec. 27 to 30, winds through seasonal landscapes and artist-created vignettes, including a Shaker Christmas, dollhouse and skating panorama.
There are also find-the-elf treasure hunts and a Christkindlmarkt-inspired artisan market of handcrafted holiday gifts. Hot cocoa and cider will be available, and the Moolicious and Sweet Crunch Bakeshop food trucks will be at the Village on Saturdays, Dec. 12 and 19. In addition, Massimo Paparello and his Brass Quartet will be performing this Saturday from 3 to 4 p.m.
