Celebrate the Holiday Season with a Living Nativity, complete with a camel, all in the Village. The Ellicottvilles Christmas Stroll was created in 1987 by a group of citizens who wanted to organize such an event in the village. After brainstorming over coffee, it was decided that they wanted a live nativity scene with children dressed as angels and shepherds, who walked around the village and met at the gazebo. There, the baby Jesus was presented and caroling presided.

Join us on a fun and festive Christmas train ride where the kids get to meet Santa! He might even have gifts for all the boys and girls!

All trips have an on-board cash sale concession.

Times of Train Rides:

• Train departs at 11:00am, 1:00pm & 3:00pm on each day

Event Details:

Sip, Snack and splatter some joy at the "Gogh" to the Pumpkin Patch Paint Party in Little Valley, NY.

Join an easy going paint party where no talent is required but you are more than welcome to get creative. You will be guided step by step so you can relax, unwind and enjoy the evening. The paint party is scheduled for August 22nd from 6-8pm and is $42 per painter. There are limited spots so sign up soon.

All supplies are included. Bring a drink and some snacks if you would like, though light refreshments will be provided. This event is intended for ages 13 and up.

This class welcomes all levels of watercolor experience—whether you’re a complete beginner or have been painting for years. Each session is tailored to meet individual skill levels, helping every student grow and refine their technique. You’ll choose from a selection of pre-drawn nature-themed outlines to paint, allowing you to focus on developing your watercolor skills without the pressure of drawing. All supplies are provided, and your finished artwork will be ready to frame in an 8” x 10” frame.

In this class, you will create a needle felted valentine themed garland using wool roving. The technique you will be using involves repeatedly poking a needle through the felt to compact the wool. You will be using heart-shaped cookie cutters to guide you in shaping the wool. You will then attach your hearts and beads onto the garland strand. The length of your finished garland will depend on how many hearts and beads you can make during the class time, and on how you choose to space them apart on the strand.

An opening reception will be held this Saturday for the current Tri-County Arts Council member show, "A Little Something", perfectly sized for holiday gift giving.  This opening will be featuring over 130 pieces featuring painting, pottery, jewelry and more from over 40 artists across the region including Wendy Bale, Rose Brawn, Lisa Conklin Conn, Karen Fitzpatrick, Barbara Fox, Theresa Heinz, Sean Huntington, Keith McKale, Peter Midgley, Nicole Missel, Eva Potter, Carolyn Raine, Melissa Stitzer, Tara Walker, Mikel Wintermantel, Jennifer Wolbert, and more.
