Even though Thanksgiving is two weeks from tomorrow, Christmas is quickly approaching, which means a lot of opportunities and fun events are on the way.
Christmas connects people with a special bond filled with joy, happiness, and smiles, so why not come out to the I-X Center for a little Christmas magic? The I-X Center is hosting Cleveland’s Christmas Connection, a shopping and gift sale to start your Christmas season off on the right foot.
Cleveland Christmas Connections is a very big event filled with a bunch of people anticipating this religious holiday. The event will have people selling their products or food in addition to a cookie decorating class for children held by Allie’s Sweet Tooth. Santa Land will also be there for kids to visit Santa Claus, Mrs. Claus, and the elves. Make sure your children bring their Santa letters, so they can mail them to the North Pole.
With more than 550 exhibitors, Santa Land, Tinseltown Train Area, and an appearance by Karolyn Grimes, the actor who played ZuZu in the holiday classic film It’s a Wonderful Life, you will not want to miss this year’s Cleveland Christmas Connection.
