Tree Lighting, cookies and art in Sharon

The lighting of Sharon’s town Christmas tree will take place on Saturday, December 5, beginning at 4:30. The festivities will include music by the Salisbury Band’s “Christmas Brass & Hot Chocolate Society”, and carol singing.

Afterward, the festivities continue at the Sharon Historical Society that has thrown open its doors with holiday cheer. All in attendance at the tree lighting festival are invited to the Sharon Historical Society for hot cider and home-made goodies.

While at the historical society, don’t miss their juried show that runs through December 18 called “What’s the Big Idea”. This juried show and sale is an exhibition of small scale artworks in a variety of mediums, not exceeding 12 inches in any direction.
