The Winter Solstice may be the shortest day of the year but there is no shortage of wonderful winter celebrations at Newfields. You’ll find everything from paper lantern making to ice carving, music and hot cocoa as well as live reindeer! Stop by Studios 3 & 4 to make a light up winter landscape snow globe and enjoy live music, luminary making stations, games, and puzzles. Once you have finished your activities outside, head to Garden Terrace for hot cocoa, a chance to meet a live reindeer, see an ice carver sculpt fantastic creations in real time, and make a giant paper bag snowflake to decorate your home with.
