Letters to Santa at the Downtown Arlington Post Office

Date and Time for this Past Event

Location

Details

Downtown Arlington has partnered with the Arlington Public Library and the United States Postal Service so you can write a letter to Santa and give it to the big man yourself!

Santa Claus is Coming to (Down)town!   

It’s true! Santa Claus (AKA Postmaster Kelvin Dansby) is coming to the Arlington Main Post Office, 300 E. South Street in Downtown for photos with Santa on Thursday, Dec. 8 from 3:30 – 6:00 pm. Santa will also have help from APL and USPS elvesto help write letters and address the envelopes! Please note that stamps are required and will be on sale during the event. 


Direct Service to the North Pole: Santa’s Mailbox   

You can bring your children to the Downtown Post Office to either write a letter to Santa for fun through the season, or send it as part of the USPS Operation Santa campaign (more information below) through December 12th! Just look for our bright red holiday mailbox, provided by the Arlignton Public Library.


If you can't make it to the photo-op, kids can either write a letter to Santa for fun and drop it off at the Downtown Post Office all season long, or they can send it as part of the USPS Operation Santa campaign through December 10th, which pairs disadvantaged youth with families who can help buy gifts.
