A sold-out crowd of 1600 people experienced the magic of Holidays at Greystone Mansion & Gardens the weekend of Dec. 3-4. The spectacularly bedecked and festive space at Greystone featured fun experiences, multicultural themes and decorations, strolling carolers, live music and dance party with acclaimed Mostly Kosher klezmer gypsy-rock band, craft-making and storytelling, and a fantastic puppet show in Greystone Theatre by the beloved Bob Baker Marionette Theater.
Inside the mansion, highlights included a visit with Santa and Mrs. Claus and posting of wishes on three wishing trees. On the grounds of Greystone, guests took part in hands-on craftmaking at the Outdoor Craft Village. In addition to the Dreidel, Dreidel, Dreidel station, visitors could make potted plant gifts with Holiday Plant Pal. Other craft stations included Winter Solstice, where pomegranates were decorated for the Yalda. Dashing through the Snow and Let it Snow stations provided plenty of craft material and accessories to make snowmen and snowflake bookmarks, and the Festival of Lights station offered the chance to make ornaments.
