Celebrate the Holidays in Roslindale!

Thanks to all of the businesses, shoppers, and diners who are helping to make this year’s Holiday Wander such a success!  We are proud to have 31 businesses participating this year, in addition to traveling musicians, carolers, and gift wrapping, every Thursday through December 22.

 

Roslindale Village is also “decked out” for the holidays with a beautifully lit tree in Adams Park, festively decorated lamp posts throughout the district (courtesy of Roslindale Village Main Street), and cheerful store window displays (courtesy of more than 40 local businesses) throughout the district.
