- Spread some paw-liday cheer.* Roxi & Co. is hosting an afternoon of holiday fun, furry friends, and festivities during its Paw-liday Cheer Open House. Stop by the shop from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday for pet photos, a paw print ornament-making station, "dog nog," and holiday sales for all the gifts on your pets' wish list. Details here.
- Vibe with some vino.* Step back in time for a holiday soirée that’s equal parts nostalgic and delightfully unexpected. Gist Wine Shop is teaming up with the folks over at Rose and Eugene Presents and Hi-Fi Hair for "A Very Vino Christmas." Sip through five curated stations with wine paired with vintage-inspired food, enjoy cozy, twinkle-lit vibes and listen to the vinyl tunes throughout the evening. Details and tickets here.
- See Santa. There's a few chances to catch the jolly old elf this weekend, including Santa at the Zoo and Santa at the Washington Pavilion. And, of course, you can also always catch him at the Empire Mall.
- See Krampus. Prefer a weird little guy to a jolly old elf? Krampus is probably your speed. You can catch him Friday evening at the plaza by the federal courthouse off Phillips Avenue. Details here.
- Support local artists. The Washington Pavilion's Art Collective event is also taking place this weekend with more than 70 vendors across a wide variety of media including painting, photography, sculpture, jewelry and more. Details here.
- Support local makers. The annual 605 Made holiday market is also happening this weekend at Cherapa Place. The free event transforms a parking garage into a pop-up shop of local makers. Details here.
- Support local theatre. The Mighty Corson Art Players are bringing a modern twist on the classic A Christmas Carol with their production of "Humbug." Details and tickets here.
