'Twas the Night Before...Christmas on Round Hill

The Christmas on Round Hill Gala Preview Party in Greenwich will kick off the holiday season on Friday, December 5.

Are you nostalgic for the holidays of years past? Do you want to see a Christmas scene right off a holiday card and shop for your gifts far from malls and highways? Then come to Christmas on Round Hill at the Round Hill Community House on Friday, December 5 and Saturday, December 6.

The Gala Preview Party, on Friday, Dec. 5, from 6 to 9 p.m., launches the fair weekend. It features music, festive drinks and hors d’oeuvres, and a photo booth with Santa props. In the midst of all the fun, there will be plenty of opportunities to complete your holiday shopping.

You’ll be sure to find the perfect gift for even the most challenging person on your list. At the heart of the Fair is “The Treasure Trove,” a collection of treasures and collectibles. You may stumble on a picture, or a pillow, or piece of silver. At “Something Special” you will see beautiful work handcrafted by artisans from the Round Hill Studio. Fine decoupage plates, decorative lacquered boxes, wood wastebaskets, magazine racks, faux finished tables, mailboxes and hand-painted children’s furniture and holiday decor are just a few of the wonderful items available, and at very reasonable prices. “Fabulous Foods” is a bountiful collection of home baked holiday delicacies, including traditional plum puddings (while they last!). “Holiday Greens” offers beautiful poinsettias and plants to decorate your home. A variety of Vendors will be selling handmade jewelry, accessories, scarves, decorative pillows, children’s clothing, and more.
