Art Center East, Shahayla Ononaiye, and Jamie Jacobson invite you to our popular community caroling event! All ages are welcome, and no singing experience is necessary. We’ll gather at ACE and then head out together on foot to carol around La Grande. Bring along some friends and/or family, and be sure to dress appropriately for the weather. Jamie recommends bringing a flashlight or headlamp so you can read the words/notes more easily. We’ll return to ACE after caroling to warm up with hot cocoa and cookies! Sheet music is provided. Please enter through the Penn Avenue door.
