ACTIVITIES SCHEDULE

Watch two ice artists from Nadeau Ice carve holiday-themed sculptures from blocks of ice using chainsaws! Be sure to dress warmly.

Be on the lookout for 12 ice sculptures on both sides of 53rd St. between S. Lake Park Ave. and Woodlawn Ave. Take pix and tag us at @53rdst_hp and #hphollyday to share in the fun! Want a map? CLICK HERE.

Free family photos with Soul Santa and Mrs. Claus at The Promontory. Note: This is a very popular event. We will do our best to accommodate as many people as possible, but we may have to stop the line prior to 1 p.m. to ensure that we finish on time. Thanks for your understanding.

We're so excited to have Mama Fresh (Jenny LeFlore), Chicago's coolest mama/community builder/influencer as our fabulous event emcee!

Look for Buddy at the ice carving demo at Harper Court, at The Promontory, and out and about on 53rd St.

Kids can create several holiday crafts with Kwanzaa, Hanukkah, and winter themes.

Note: Some of the crafts have small pieces which could be a choking hazard for young children. Parents must stay with their children while they are making crafts.
