Princeton-area celebrations span the season, from early cookie-making workshops in Lahaska to late New Year's Eve gatherings.

If you're seeking adult-oriented events, the Adult Holiday Cookie Night offers a chance to craft treats, while the Silver Bells Christmas Gala promises a more formal evening. These are just a few of the ways to enjoy the season's spirit close to home and in surrounding towns.
