Lights of Love Community Celebration & Holiday Market

On Thurs., Dec. 4, Ronald McDonald House will hold a community celebration to support seriously ill children and their families in the Triangle. Called Lights of Love, the event is a capstone celebration to a six-month campaign to raise critical funds for Ronald McDonald Houses and in-hospital support programs in Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill.

The public is invited to join the festivities that begin at 4:00 p.m. on Blackwell St. in front of the DBAP and end at 7:00 p.m. Activities for families include photos with Santa, Kids’ Zone games, therapy dogs, and the Carolina Hurricanes Slap Shot inflatable. A Lights of Love Holiday Market features vendors Parker and Otis, Bright Black, Kendra Scott, Lily & Blume, and other Triangle-based businesses.

Activities are free and open to the public. Attendees are invited to bring unwrapped items from the Ronald McDonald House holiday wish list. Santa and his elves will be on hand to receive donations from 4:00-7:00 p.m. https://rmhctriangle.org/events/the-wishing-tree/
