Chamber Annual Tree Lighting with Winter Arts + Crafts Fair Sunday

The Stoneham Chamber of Commerce’s Annual Tree Lighting hosted by StonehamBank will take place on the Stoneham Town Common on Sunday, December 1, from 3 to 5pm.

Activities will include visits with Santa, craft making and activities, hot chocolate, the Memory Tree, holiday music provided by Black Diamond Event Production and caroling with the Stoneham Girl Scouts. Stoneham Recreation will once again be sponsoring the Kiddie Train on the Common. The event will culminate with the official tree lighting by StonehamBank at 4:45pm. The tree lighting display and holiday decorations are made possible by the Stoneham Department of Public Works. A special thanks to Salem Five Bank, Liberty Bell Stoneham, The Arbors at Stoneham and Spartan Paint & Supply for their support of the tree lighting.

As part of the Chamber’s More Cheer Happens Here holiday campaign, there will also be a Winter Arts & Crafts Fair sponsored by the Stoneham Art Group in the Town Hall Auditorium from 1 to 5pm. The event will feature more than 40 local artists and crafters offering homemade goods for the holidays.

Save the dates! More holiday cheer is happening in Stoneham in December. The Holiday Parade returns on Saturday, Dec. 7 from 11am-1pm with the Stoneham Fire and Police Departments, Stoneham Recreation, Stoneham Elementary School PTOs and local civic groups. The Stoneham Chamber is partnering with local businesses to present a second Holiday Open House on December 14, 2-5pm, featuring a Trolley that will take guests to Santa at Whip Hill. Community members are encouraged to explore Stoneham's shops, businesses, and restaurants for special offers, raffles, treats, and promotions that make holiday shopping enjoyable and convenient. During the Open House, participants can collect stamps on a holiday “passport” from the businesses they visit. The more stamps they gather, the greater their chances to win fantastic prizes in our raffle!
