If you are looking for some good, old-fashioned holiday fun with the family, make downtown Kokomo a stop on your list! With its vintage charm and vibrant holiday lights, downtown is the perfect place to begin your holiday adventures.
The best place to start your holiday fun is at the Wintertyme Village in Kokomo Municipal Stadium! Enjoy shopping at local vendors and other festive activities such as holiday movies on the jumbotron, making holiday treats with Mrs. Claus, and meeting Santa. Don’t forget to check out the Frozen Sandlot, a beloved winter tradition!
Looking to get creative this holiday season? Check out Fired Arts for a fabulous painting experience. You can make one-of-a-kind holiday decorations or a unique gift for someone special!
As you are strolling around downtown, be sure to check out the elaborately-decorated window displays at all of the shops and buildings. This year, the Greater Kokomo Downtown Association is hosting a window decorating contest, where all of the downtown buildings will be decorating their storefronts for the holidays! While you admire these displays, don’t forget to vote for your favorite one to be this year’s “Superior Holiday Window Decorator!” Voting will be from Nov. 22-Dec. 5, and the winner will be announced during First Friday: Ugly Sweater on Dec. 6.
Make your festive visit to downtown Kokomo extra cozy by grabbing a coffee or hot chocolate at MO Joe Coffee House and Black Wax Cafe. For grown-ups looking to spice up their holidays, check out holiday brews and cocktails from Cooper’s Pub, Sun King Brewery and The Coterie.
Of course, no trip downtown would be complete without shopping! Find fashionable gifts at Annmarie’s Boutique, Olive Tree Boutique, Esther’s Place Boutique, Palmer’s Jewelry, and P.F. Hendricks; unique finds at Crystal Wand Creations and Sunshine + Water Plant Bar; and the perfect presents for geeks of all kinds in the shops on Geek Street, Kingdom Cards and Games, Sound of Music, and Hargrove Music Group. For a gift that is truly one-of-a-kind, check out Artworks Gallery’s Holiday Art Bazaar all season long to find treasures created by Kokomo Art Association artists.
