Downtown Arlington’s Letters to Santa

Details

Santa is coming to (Down)town!

Downtown Arlington, in collaboration with the Arlington Public Library and the United States Postal Service, invites you and your family to a magical event where you can write a letter to Santa and hand-deliver it to the man in red himself!

Get ready to meet Santa himself at the Levitt Pavilion Hospitality Center on December 5th from 4 pm to 7 pm. Santa will be surrounded by cheerful Library elves eager to help your little ones write their letters to Santa. They'll guide them through the joyous process of crafting their wishes and addressing the envelopes, ensuring every letter is ready mail to the North Pole.

Letters to Santa will take place during Downtown Arlington's December First Thursdays event. After writing to Santa, enjoy live music on the Levitt stage from UTA Jazz, visit a Holiday Market hosted by Levitt and venture out into the walkable Downtown Arlington area to support local businesses and enjoy free artistic experiences for the whole family. More info on First Thursdays can be found here

Even if you can't make it to this event, the holiday spirit continues! Kids can drop off their letters to Santa at the Downtown Post Office throughout the season. Santa’s red mailbox will also be out at the Downtown Public Library for letter writing and drop-off from November 18th through December 5th. Participation in the USPS Operation Santa campaign is available until December 9th. Operation Santa is a wonderful initiative where letters from disadvantaged youth are matched with generous families willing to spread the joy of giving during this special time of year.

It's an opportunity for children to share their holiday wishes and for families to make a difference in the lives of those who need it most. More information can be found here: https://www.uspsoperationsanta.com/how
