Even though we are enjoying a lovely and warm autumn, we all know that winter is around the corner, including a visit from Santa on December 24th. This exhibit will put you in the mood. It includes memorabilia (plates, ashtrays, spoons, salt and pepper shakers, etc.) and family photographs, which will enchant and delight. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The exhibit is curated by Sue Hemond, whose family owns the items in the exhibit. Sue\u2019s grandparents owned a dairy farm in Jefferson, NH. When they sold a piece of their land in the 1950s to the friends who started Santa&#8217;s Village, the deal included a lifetime pass to the park for all the family. Thus began many summers of visits to Santa with cousins in tow, and a permanent love of anything to do with Christmas.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/liclblog.townoflongisland.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Santas-Village.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-761\" src=\"https:\/\/liclblog.townoflongisland.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Santas-Village.jpg\" alt=\"Santa's Village\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/liclblog.townoflongisland.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Santas-Village.jpg 720w, https:\/\/liclblog.townoflongisland.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Santas-Village-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The exhibit is open during library hours<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are pleased to announce a new exhibit in the Long Island Community Library&#8217;s small glass case about Santa&#8217;s Village in Jefferson, New Hampshire, a Christmas themed village.
