JOIN US FOR THE
FIRST LIGHT HOLIDAY
CELEBRATION
Participate in this neighborhood-wide celebration, fun for all ages!
Typically, First Light is a chance for Brookline businesses to open their doors to the community. This year, we'll be doing things a little bit differently. Instead of a door, businesses will be opening a window - an internet browser window. Join retail shops, restaurants, performance spaces, and studios around Town for free virtual fun. Use our interactive map to browse the offerings -- from free workshops, tutorials, and performances over Zoom, to live talks and tours, we've got something for everyone. And never fear -- if you miss the festivities on December 3, the site will be available for browsing at your leisure for a week.

First Light Map
Starting on December third, you can select pinned locations to view offerings from Brookline and nearby communities. Each location will be offering events starting on December 3, 2020 at 5:30 PM. Some of those events are "live," while others are pre-recorded, so keep an eye out. This site will remain available until December 10, so feel free to return to check out what you missed!
