Holiday run around the city that will include the parks

Ice Skating and other activities at Mulberry Commons

Join us for a day celebrating winter holidays around the world, including Flamenco for Dia De Los Reyes, a Kwanzaa theatrical performance, and a lively Latin band for Parrandas.

Stroll through the galleries with carolers, enjoy a magical light show, and participate in a build-a-bear workshop. Families can also create their own ornaments for our community Christmas tree while sipping hot chocolate. Don’t miss this fun-filled day of art, music, and holiday cheer!

Spotlighting celebrated artists from Newark and beyond, the New Jersey Symphony lauds the power of the first instrument—the human voice—with a gospel music-inspired holiday extravaganza. Come ready to sing, dance and clap along!

Spirits will soar at “For Unto Us a Child is Born” and the “Hallelujah Chorus” as well as the treasured arias that make Handel’s Messiah the must-hear classic of the holidays. Jeannette Sorrell, who “brings revelations” (Philadelphia Inquirer) to everything she conducts, leads the New Jersey Symphony and the phenomenal Montclair State University Singers.
