Visit a Swedish Festival
Get in the holiday spirit by checking out the 29th Annual Swedish Festival hosted by the nonprofit Swedish Women’s Educational Association (SWEA). The event will feature the St. Lucia pageant (which in brief is a symbol of life in a dark world that happens near the holidays), Swedish dishes, music, caroling, dance, crafts, and more!
Don’t miss the Swedish Santa Claus, “Jultomtem” and glogg – a traditional hot, spiced wine – yum!
