Whether you’re new to the area or have lived there your whole life, these events are sure to brighten everyone’s holiday season. Drop by for some fun! 

Lockport residents are in luck this year, as their hometown has planned a handful of ways to celebrate the holidays locally this December. First up is the 5th Annual Christmas Tea, which will take place at the Gladys Fox Museum. There, attendants will be treated to a sophisticated afternoon of finger sandwiches, homemade cookies and a variety of steaming hot teas. Share lunch with friends and family while participating in the community raffle, and be sure to stay late for the live musical performances!

Fortunately, there is no need to worry about packing on any cold weather calories because Lockport’s Jingle Bell 5k is only a week after the Tea! Burn off all of those holiday cookies and desserts by joining the town in the most enjoyable run of the year. Not only are the Tea and 5k terrific ways to get in the spirit, but they also provide an opportunity to get to know the people of Lockport.
