Home on the Grange

The Left Hand Grange is an integral ingredient to Niwot's holiday cheer during the frosty festivities. Community organizations welcome old and young alike to gather at the Grange to enjoy its warmth while listening to music, tasting delicious holiday fare, and meeting special once-a-year guests.

Santa Visits at the Grange

Friday, Nov. 25, from 6-9 pm. and Saturday, Nov. 26, 11 a.m. – 1 p.m.

The end of November brings a couple of opportunities for the little ones to meet Santa in person at the Grange. On Friday, Nov. 25, following Niwot's Enchanted Evening tree lighting event at 6 p.m., Santa and Mrs. Claus will be meeting with children in the comfort of the Grange's downstairs hall.

The next day, Saturday, Nov. 26, Santa will be the grand marshal for Niwot's Holiday Parade at 11 a.m. When the parade ends, Santa will make his way to the warmth of the Grange to talk with children until 1 p.m.

Holiday Markets, Bake Sales, and Santa

Saturdays, Dec. 3 and Dec.10, 10 a.m. - 4 p.m.

December brings two more chances for children to spend time with Santa at the Grange. In addition to Father Christmas' presence, there will be fabulous festive gifts for sale from a multitude of artists and vendors, and bake sales to enhance your holiday table.

Holiday treats handmade by members of WINC (Women International Niwot Club) include British mince pies, large cakes, scones, and more. All of the proceeds from the bake sales go to local charities supported by WINC.
