Swannanoa Winterfest
101 West Charleston Ave
Swannanoa
Take a break from holiday preparations and enjoy the spirit of the season at Swannanoa Winterfest, a unique new community celebration that brings a taste of Old Europe to the Swannanoa Valley. This free event takes place in Grovemont Square (adjacent to the Swannanoa Library, 101 West Charleston Ave.), on Saturday, December 14, from 4 – 8pm.
Modeled on the traditional German Weihnachts markets, the Swannanoa WinterFest will feature a variety of 20 artisans, vendors and charity selling holiday-themed items under the festive lights of our tents. Attendees can warm their hands over one of several fire pits, while enjoying the delicious food, European holiday treats and drinks that will be available for purchase. Caroling, sing-alongs and festive holiday lights will fill Grovemont Square with the sounds and sights of the season. There will be activities for the kids, too, including hay rides, Olaf visiting and more…
The Swannanoa Winterfest is a gift to the community, brought to you by the Swannanoa Community Council, Friends and Neighbors of Swannanoa (FANS), and the Friends of the Swannanoa Library.
Bounty and Soul and the Meals on Wheels Pet Food drive will be the attending charity organizations. Meals on Wheels Pet Food drive is asking for pet food donations that you can bring to the event.
The Swannanoa Library’s huge used book sale, located in the library basement, will be open throughout the event.
Bring the whole family and share the holiday spirit with your friends and neighbors!
