Light Up the Holidays on Irvington Avenue
December 13, 2014 @ 5:30 pm
The Irvington Avenue Corridor Advisory Committee (IACAC) will cap off its inaugural year with a new annual tradition: a holiday tree lighting celebration to take place on the evening of Friday, December 12.
The celebration will take place from 5:30 to 8:00 p.m. and will be held in and around the pocket park on Irvington and West Fairview Avenues. It will feature kids’ arts and crafts, refreshments, and music, including a performance from Seton Hall University’s a cappella group, The Gentlemen of the Hall.
At around 6:00 p.m., youngsters from the Baird Community Preschool will warm up the crowd for the lighting of the 20-foot tree that borders the park, as well as for the evening’s special guest: Santa Claus, who will also be available for picture-taking.
As part of the occasion, a number of Irvington Avenue restaurants will feature special offers and discounts, including 15 percent off all non-seafood menu items at Inkosi Café, 20 percent off all menu items at Guanaticos, and 15 percent off the check at University Subs and Blue Ocean.
