From: Lucia Festival in CincinnatiScandinavian Society of Cincinnati is celebrating Lucia Fest at the Maple Knoll Auditorium on December. Lucia is celebrated in Scandinavia on December 13th, and all around the Scandinavian countries people gather to watch the Lucia processions with boys and girls dressed in white, carrying candles and singing the Lucia song. It is common for children to visit nursing homes where they light up the day with Lucia processions and songs and music for the holidays.
We are lucky to have the Swedish choir in Cincinnati who will help us sing the Lucia song and entertain us with Swedish Christmas carols.
As the evening progresses, keep an eye out for our Tomten (Santa) who will have gifts for our younger guests!
Doors open at 4PM, with the Lucia procession to start at 5PM.
We will enjoy a potluck dinner. Sandwiches and drinks will be provided, and guests are asked to bring dishes and desserts to share. Do you perhaps have a favorite Scandinavian recipe that you would like to share? Traditionally the table is filled with Scandinavian foods.
The cost for this event is $10 per adult, and $5 per child. Friends and family are welcome.
Doors open at 4 p.m., event starts at 5 p.m.
