Event Details

Marywood will be in downtown Scranton on December 4th.  Attendants will get to experience Christmas—Electric City style. There’s nothing quite like downtown and the square when lit from corner to corner and echoing the spirit of Christmas in every storefront window. The event will take place on Friday, December 4, at 5pm with Father Brian and students meeting with alumni at Pizza by Pappa’s for a lively telling of the Feast of Saint Nicholas, who was known for his generosity towards children. In keeping with Saint Nicholas’ tradition, coloring books will be given to the children. Following the pizza and storytelling, alumni can get a head start on their Christmas shopping, and a chance to support the local economy, with discounts at various stores in downtown Scranton. With stomachs full, and pockets a little lighter, alumni can savor the night’s festivities while strolling through Nay Aug Park’s holiday light show that has over 250 displays requiring anywhere from 500 to 1,000 lights! Whether it’s the Tree Lighting Ceremony, Breakfast with Santa, or Christmas in downtown Scranton, alumni will find all the elements that make Christmas the wonderful holiday it is: friends, family, and the spirit of giving.  More details will follow on specific discounts and other possible events. 

Please join the Marywood Chamber Singers for their annual Christmas Concert this Friday, December 4, at 7:30 PM, in the Marian Chapel at the Swartz Center.  The performance will feature Richard Rodney Bennett's captivating Missa Brevis and Benjamin Britten's popular Festival Te Deum, as well as music by Byrd, Tallis, and Stanford.  The ensemble will also perform arrangements of "Danny Boy" and "A Red, Red Rose," along with several carols.

There will also be the Monthly artwalk featuring over 20 art galleries and businesses displaying work from local, regional and nationally known artists. www.firstfridayscranton.com
