Ringing in the Holidays
 Join us as we Ring in the holiday season at Main Street Novi for
the annual Ringing in the Holidays event! You can visit Santa’s
Workshop to build crafts and get your picture taken with jolly St.
Nick; sing-along to familiar carols, dance to upbeat tunes, get into
the spirit of the season with local entertainers; and finish some
holiday shopping as vendors will be onsite selling their beautiful
creations at our craft show. Experience our new “Marshmallow World”
extravaganza for the children and young at heart. Slide down a
mountain of cottony marshmallow snow, join in a marshmallow snowball
challenge, and create a one of a kind marshmallow snowman craft to
take home as a remembrance of your frosty, fun filled holiday
happening. The crowd favorite Electric Light Parade and Tree
Lighting Ceremony will start at 6pm! Additional Information: Novi
Parks is seeking vendors for the Holiday Craft Show. Please contact
Nancy Hayden
via email for more
information.
