This time festivities are set for the Ting Pavilion, at the east end of the Downtown Mall, on Friday, December 3 from 5:00 to 8:00 p.m. While the highlight is the spectacular lighting of the 30-foot, 30-year-old Norway Spruce community tree in City Hall Plaza, the event will also feature music, food, games, and prizes, plus special guests.

The Key’s Corner Indoor Market in the Herman Key Recreation Center (formerly the Carver Recreation Center) bridges the gap between the Holiday and warm weather City Markets and begins January 8.
Waldorf School Holiday Bazaar “To market, to market, to buy a fat (fruitcake)” is what we learned as little kids, and if you grew up thinking that sounded like multiple markets, around here you were right. Charlottesville Waldorf School’s Holiday Bazaar offers its own fine selection of handmade gifts, including jump ropes, beeswax candles, and holiday wreaths. Other activities include storytelling, and a holiday singalong with Blue Ridge Music Together, and a silent auction and raffle. Admission is free. Activity tickets will be sold on-site, and credit cards accepted. No pets. The Bazaar’s adults-only shopping preview is Friday, December 3 from 6:00

You can “Be a Claus for a Cause” yourself by supporting The Arc of the Piedmont at the Charlottesville Santa Fun Run, Saturday, December 4 at 11:00 a.m. All proceeds from the event will support the group’s programs for people in Charlottesville and the surrounding community who live with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

The Oratorio Society of Virginia Presents: Christmas at The Paramount The Oratorio Society of Virginia returns to public performance on Saturday, December 18 at 2:30 and 7:30 p.m. with its annual Christmas at the Paramount program. Music Director Michael Slon and 60 of the community’s finest singers will present this beloved Charlottesville holiday tradition. The choir will be accompanied by an orchestra as it sings excerpts from Antonio Vivaldi’s timeless and joyful Gloria and Sergei Rachmaninoff’s stirring and powerful All-Night Vigil. Holiday works from Virginia’s own Adolphus Hailstork, Abbie Betinis, and familiar seasonal favorites round out the concert.
The Magic Flute Mozart’s The Magic Flute is best known for “Queen of the Night,” a dazzling aria for a fearless soprano. Julie Taymor’s shortened, English-language version of Mozart’s timeless fairy tale, conducted by James Levine with a winning ensemble cast including Nathan Gunn, Ying Huang, Matthew Polenzani, and René Pape, was a hit when the Metropolitan Opera staged it in 2006. The Paramount will offer an encore livestream of this family favorite on Wednesday, December 30 at 2:30 p.m.
CAAR REAL ESTATE WEEKLY WWW.CAAR.COM
Cendrillon On New Year’s Day the Paramount will present another Metropolitan Opera hit, Laurent Pelly’s storybook staging of Massenet’s Cendrillon. This new and abridged 90-minute adaptation, also sung in English, will star mezzo-soprano Isabel Leonard as its rags-to-riches princess, mezzo-soprano Emily D’Angelo as Cinderella’s Prince Charming, soprano Jessica Pratt as her Fairy Godmother, and mezzo-soprano Stephanie Blythe and bass-baritone Laurent Naouri as her feuding guardians. Emmanuel Villaume will conduct; Mary Ann Archer, a flutist with the Met for 26 years, will give a complimentary pre-opera lecture at noon.
Theater Elvis will be in the building when Matt Lewis takes the stage at the Paramount Theater with Charlottesville’s own Big Ray and the Kool Kats on Sunday December 5. The tribute artist that USA Today called “The Best in Las Vegas!” will sing “Blue Christmas,” “I’ll be Home for Christmas,” “Here Comes Santa Claus” and more holiday hits, plus classic Elvis songs from his rockabilly era, his Vegas years and, perhaps best of all, his 1968 Comeback Special.
Monticello For Thomas Jefferson, Christmas was “the day of greatest mirth and jollity,” and the high point of a social and religious season extending from Advent through Christmastide. Monticello’s Holiday Evening Tours, December 10, 11, 17-23, and 26-30, offer an opportunity to see Monticello as it may have looked in Jefferson’s time, decorated with the then popular style of holiday greenery. Ticketholders will tour both public and private areas of the home, including the iconic Dome Room, and will also learn about the holiday traditions of Monticello’s enslaved community. Annual Wreath Workshops are a tradition up on the mountain now. Led by Monticello Guide and Floral Designer, Lou Hatch and Monticello Curator of Plants, Peggy Cornett, attendees will create a door decoration that will last throughout the season. Guided instruction will be given for different styles of wreaths, including, traditional, natural and modern. These three-hour wreath-making workshops will be held on Thursday, December 2 at 9:30 a.m., Friday, December 3 at 4:00 p.m., Saturday, December 4 at 9:30 a.m., and Sunday, December 5 at 2:00 p.m. Lou Hatch will also present a Virtual Wreath Workshop, on Saturday, December 4. Virtual workshop ticket buyers will receive a shopping list of required materials. Joseph C. Cabell, a Jefferson protégé who later helped him found the University of Virginia and served on its Board of Visitors for almost 40 years, once gave his mentor a walking stick as a Christmas gift. Walking sticks are not for sale in the Monticello gift shop, but shoppers will find ornaments, jewelry, clothing, furniture, books and much more.
Highlands James Monroe’s Highlands estate’s own holiday tour tradition, scheduled this year for December 11 from 4:30 to 5:30 p.m., is called After Hours at Highland. Participants will be greeted by James Monroe reenactor Beau Robbins and given a private candlelit viewing of newly opened exhibits in the 1818 guesthouse. Time will be allowed for questions and discussion.
A Christmas Carol A year ago, we had a choice of streams or DVDs, on flat screens, laptops, I-Pads, or phones. “Bah Humbug” that ‘twas, because nothing is finer than the anticipation of walking through the doors of our local theaters. “God bless us everyone,” the theaters are open again, including
Making Spirits Bright You can dance in your seat—or all around your living room—when Valley Dance Theatre presents Making Spirits Bright, Sunday, December 5 at 2:00 and 5:30 p.m., both live at Waynesboro’s Wayne Theatre and streaming online. Dancers aged 3 and up will perform Nutcracker excerpts and classic and contemporary holiday favorites.
A Christmas Story: The Musical Is there anything for making spirits bright quite like a troupe of beaming actors taking a bow after a live musical? If you doubt, get yourself to Waynesboro’s Wayne Theater, December 9-12 and 16-19, for A Christmas Story: The Musical. Based on the holiday movie classic and set in the 1940s in the fictional town of Hohman, Indiana, the play follows 9-year-old Ralphie Parker on his quest for the Holy Grail of Christmas gifts—an Official Red Ryder carbine-action 200shot Range Model air rifle. Imagine accidentally shoving Santa off your roof on Christmas Eve, then magically recruited to take his place in
the sleigh. That’s what happens to Scott (Tim Allen) in the 1994 film, The Santa Clause. The Wayne will show this Christmastime romantic comedy on Monday, December 20 at 2:00 and 7:00 p.m.
Dark Tales and Haunts of The Queen City—Christmas Edition Are you brave enough for a haunted tour of downtown Staunton? The Christmas edition of the Dark Tales and Haunts of The Queen City starts at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, December 4 and Saturday, December 11, and stops at Western State Asylum, the Depot Station, Miss Charlotte Coffman’s House, and other local spots where history is strange and scary.

SOUNDS LIKE DISCRIMINATION.
What matters is how you look on paper – not how you sound over the phone. Judging you by your race or color instead of your qualifications is discrimination. It’s unfair, it’s painful... and it’s against the law. The best way to stop housing discrimination is to report it. If you believe you may be a victim of housing discrimination, contact HUD or your local Fair Housing Center:
Your Choice. Your Right. Your Home. A public service message from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development in partnership with the National Fair Housing Alliance. The federal Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination because of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, familial status or disability. For more information, visit www.hud.gov/fairhousing.
