Can you believe it's December? Another year almost gone. The end of the year holidays are always my favorite time. One way you can enjoy the twinkling lights is the annual Calvert County Garden in Lights.
In what has become a time-honored tradition in Calvert County, the Annmarie Sculpture Garden and Arts Center in Dowell will begin holding its Garden in Lights display beginning this Friday, December 7th. With the exception of December 10th, 11th, 24th and 25th, Annmarie's Garden in Lights will be open from 6pm to 9pm every evening until New Year's Day. Guests will travel along a guided path through the winter wonderland filled with unique depictions of pirates, dinosaurs, circus folk, mythical creatures and wild animals created specifically by the people at Annmarie. You won't see anything else like it anywhere.
The fun begins in the Art Building, where you can pick up your own "Holiday I Spy" program and shop for special ornaments for your family's tree. A shiny green shamrock will be hidden somewhere in each display vignette. Find all seven and you've mastered the "Holiday I Spy" game. Each night will be filled with live entertainment, special exhibits as well as treats available at the Dream Weaver's Holiday Cafe. You'll soon see why Calvert County's Garden in Lights was honored with Maryland Life Magazine's Finest Holiday Tradition Award.
Admission for "kids" ages 5 and older is just $6 per person. Children under 5 and all Annmarie members are allowed to visit for free. For more information on special discounts and theme nights, please call 410-326-4640. The Calvert County Garden in Lights is the perfect way to celebrate the holiday season for kids of all ages!
