Begin your holiday celebrations with the annual Solomons Christmas Walk on Friday and Saturday, Dec. 4 and Dec. 5, from 6 p.m. – 9 p.m. In addition to all of the attractions on the island, from the Garden in Lights to the lighted boat parade, the museum is serving up its own smorgasbord of holiday delights for visitors of all ages.

On Friday evening, replacing the normal First Free Friday activities, the museum will host a trio of Patuxent performers. Starting at 6 p.m., is the Patuxent High Chamber Choir, then at 7 p.m., the Patuxent Voices, and at 8 p.m., the energetic Patuxent Pearls will take the stage.   

On Saturday evening, the entertainment kicks off at 6 p.m. with the Patuxent High Jazz Ensemble, followed at 7 p.m. by the Cosmic Flute Choir, and the evening will close with The Good Stuff. 

Santa will be on hand both nights to hear the children’s secret wishes, and of course, the museum’s Otter will make an appearance. Kids can create a holiday craft to take with them. Enjoy punch and cookies on Friday, and on Saturday, Santa’s Coffee House will be open with complimentary hot tea, coffee, hot cocoa, and holiday cookies. Plan on doing your Christmas shopping too.  The Museum Store will be open both nights and is stocked with gifts that will delight everyone on your list.
