“We wanted to run something that would celebrate a variety of winterholidays and offer a fun spin on the traditional holiday markets,” said Amy Howlett, an event organizer. “For example, Santa will be there, just not as you would expect.”
WNTR highlights include: the Sandwicheria Food Truck, Metropolitan Klezmer, and a musical-instrument “petting zoo” courtesy of InTune.
Over the course of the weekends, WNTR will host more than 70 local makers and over 20 different activities and performances.

of which are a quick walk from Yale Corner,” added Nicole Dooskin Wallace of Springfield Avenue Partnership.
