A Celtic Christmas at the Craterian Theater
Dec
22
3:00 PM15:00

A Celtic Christmas at the Craterian Theater

Rekindle the flame in the hearth with stories, dance & song from Ireland.

In concert halls from California to Florida, from Texas to Maine, Tomáseen Foley’s A Celtic Christmas takes us back to Ireland of the 1950s, to a night before Christmas, to a place where the motor car, the television, and the telephone were little more than unlikely rumors, and to a time when the neighbors would gather at each others’ homes, bringing with them not only their traditional musical instruments, but also their songs, their dances, their laughter, and -- always, ever and always, -- their stories.

When you’ve finished your post-Thanksgiving “Black Friday” shopping, plan to head over to Hanley Farm for Southern Oregon Historical Society’s annual wreath making workshop. To make your own Holiday Wreath, wreath making kits will provide all you’ll need: grapevine or fruitwood bases, evergreens, berries, and trimmings such as dried hydrangeas and pinecones - all from Hanley Farm vines and the yards of volunteers. Wires, clippers, and ribbon will also be available. For that extra holiday “pizzazz,” by all means, bring your own special ribbon, trimming, and ornaments!

An additional treat - Santa will be there! Here’s an opportunity for children to whisper their secrets into Santa’s ear. And, one of Santa’s elves will have a candy cane for each child. OH! Be sure to bring your camera to take a photo with Santa and our Big Red Christmas truck.
