Saturday’s festivities set the mood for a bright and jolly holiday season.
Getting into the Christmas spirit was easy Saturday night, as Light Up Night festivities lined Brookline Boulevard. Cannon Coffee served up hot chocolate, cookies and other Christmas treats throughout the evening. A couple doors down at Melissa Distel Photography, Santa stopped by to discuss gift-giving and pose for pictures with the kids. Brookline Ministerium coordinated a live Nativity scene in front of Brookline Presbyterian. Christmas carollers added spirit to the event-and a petting zoo added some humor. Check out our Light Up Night photos – and feel free to send us your own! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, everyone! Dormont’s Light Up Night will be Saturday, Dec. 3.
