The Piedmont Park Conservancy is inviting the community to kick off the holiday season at the inaugural Light Up the Season celebration in The Meadow at Piedmont Park on Sunday, Nov. 23, from 6 to 7:30 p.m.
The evening will feature the lighting of the Park’s Great Tree, Menorah, and Kinara, symbolizing unity, hope, and the shared spirit of the season.
There will also be remarks from Rev. Natasha Reid Rice, Mindy Selig Shoulberg and Conservancy leadership, along with performances by electric violinist Michelle Winters and a cappella group The Atlanta Graduates.
Guests can enjoy festive photo ops, complimentary scoops of holiday-inspired frozen custard from Shake Shack, hands-on activities from the Children’s Museum of Atlanta – including coloring books and a large block installation – along with special offers like discounted tickets from Cirque du Soleil and Park Tavern’s ice-skating rink.
Attendees are encouraged to bring nonperishable food for The Salvation Army Can-A-Thon (with Publix), new children’s pajamas for Beyond Bedtime (with the Carter’s Charitable Foundation), and gently used or new books for the Park’s Little Free Library.
