ON A WINTER’S EVE

It is about as “home town” as this big New York City gets. This indoor and outdoor festival in the streets around Lincoln Square on Broadway between 58th & 68th Streets (which includes Lincoln Center with all the performing arts) is an annual grand holiday party as many throw open their doors to neighbors.

Following Lincoln Center’s annual lighting of the Christmas tree, roving bands, street theater, Broadway performers, singing groups, clowns and creatures from Arm-of-the Sea wander through the festival-goers.

 Small tents with food from local restaurants and arts & crafts for the kids round out the pleasure. The holiday spirit still abounds around Lincoln Square, but you’ll need to mark your calendar for Winter’s Eve in 2011. http://www.winterseve.org/.
