Celebrate the start of Yuletide with a crisp woodland walk, stopping to enjoy four tastings courtesy of Moët Hennessy and a holiday inspired market. Warm up by the fire, listen to live banjo & fiddle songs by Jump Fingers and instrumental renditions by The Midnighters, taste a sweet treat, and sip on some apple cider all while getting a jump on your holiday shopping with local makers and creators.

Create some holiday magic and make paper snowflakes in the greenhouses with local artist Samara Weaver. The snowflakes will be used to create imprints in handmade clay ornaments that will decorate the Visitor Center. More snowflake ornaments, along with others featuring imprints of architectural shapes at Winterthur, will hang alongside walking paths at Winterthur for guests to find and take home.
