On Wednesday, December 17, celebrate the upcoming winter solstice with the Lincoln Square Business Improvement District at the fourth annual WinteRamble—an illuminated neighborhood procession featuring the iconic Frost Giant puppets and icicle lanterns from Processional Arts Workshop. Make a mini-lantern at our free workshop, carry an icicle lantern, or walk with us on the sidewalks and be a part of our neighborhood’s festive holiday tradition.
The joyful procession starts at 5:00pm in front of 1886 Broadway (between 62nd Street and 63rd Street) and meanders through the Lincoln Square neighborhood to the ethereal sounds of J.C. King’s Kalimbascope (a rolling ensemble of acoustically-enhanced thumb pianos) until 6:00pm. Residents, neighbors, and visitors can join the procession from anywhere along the route. Before the procession starts, make your own mini-lantern at our free workshop between 3:00pm and 5:00pm at TD Bank (1873 Broadway at West 62nd Street). Teaching artists from Processional Arts Workshop will be on hand to help. Sign up via this form to participate in the workshop, carry an icicle lantern, join the Kalimbascope, or walk along with the group. Everyone is welcome to take part in this family-friendly event!
The WinteRamble is free, but we are encouraging everyone to join us in supporting our longtime local partners, the Lincoln Square Neighborhood Center and Goddard Riverside. Together, we can help our neighbors access the resources and services they need. Donations can be made at this link.
