A Visit from the 1848 Knickerbocker Santa

Join us at The Mill for this unique event! This Santa, as portrayed by Kevin Rawlings, celebrates the first publication in 1848 of the book-length, illustrated edition of Clement C. Moore's poem “A Visit from St. Nicholas,” more commonly known as “ ‘Twas The Night Before Christmas.” This was the first time the public saw a full visual representation of Moore's Santa and his reindeer, solidifying him as a jolly, gift-giving figure. Again, there is no admission fee and all are welcome to attend.
