DECEMBER...
There Are Many Ways To Enjoy This Month
December 2025
[Prepared by Vice-President | Maxine Howchin]Happy December, everyone! The Festive Season is finally upon us. There are many ways to enjoy this month: Seasonal Craft Fairs, Pantomimes, Concerts, and visits with family and friends. It brings memories of warm fires, hot chocolate, bright lights and lively conversations. We think about the many things we have done through the year, and reflect on all that this year has brought. (It has finally brought the completion of my fused glass window, haha!) Children think about playing in the snow, time off from school, and the winter fun they can have.
As the weather grows colder, take time to enjoy a good book, watch a favorite movie, cook a festive meal, and partake of crisp days and the sights and smells of all the wonderful things going on. This is the time where we also think more of others and how we can reach out to make the season special with little things, a smile, a kind word, and a thoughtful gesture goes a long way. Whatever holiday you celebrate, may it bring you joy and happiness.
Check out the various posters for events coming up this month (and even some in the new year!), or read through our listings on pages 21 - 23 for ideas on what to do or see! And of course, come to the Newton Cultural Centre and see our Holiday Card Visual and Verse Juried Art show in our Gallery. Make us part of your Holiday season. We would love to see you.
