Lights of Love is back! The tree lighting ceremony and celebration will take place on Sunday, December 6th at Elm Grove Village Hall.

In addition to the tree lighting, there will be visits with Santa, stories with Mrs. Claus, crafts, a magic show, caroling, and more!

This beloved tradition also acts as a fundraiser for the Elm Grove Library. Over the years, this fundraiser has supported the library in countless ways, including purchasing new collections, online databases, educational technology, furnishings, experience passes, and more.

Have you ever checked out the experience passes at the library? These passes provide opportunities for fun experiences, like this beautiful fall walk at Schlitz Audubon Nature Center (thanks for the photos, Monica!)

Experience passes are supported by FOEGL.
