At various Greenville Libraries (December 12: Travelers Rest; December 12: Fountain Inn; December 14: Taylors)
Inspired by the beautiful children’s book The Polar Express by renowned author Chris Van Allsburg, Greenville Libraries’ Polar Express Party is a delight for the entire family. Set in Grand Rapids, Michigan (Van Allsburg’s home town), The Polar Express tells the story of a young boy who wakes up on the night of Christmas Eve to a surprise – but rather than Santa, it is a train that is waiting for him. Children and adults alike enjoy the boy’s magical journey through forests and mountains to the North Pole in the adventure of a lifetime. Crafts and snacks are provided.
The Nutcracker
Greenville Symphony Orchestra. December 21-23, Peace Concert Hall.

They travel through the Land of Snow and the Land of Sweets, meeting the Sugar Plum Fairy, and facing off with the Mouse King. With the International Ballet Company and the Greenville Symphony Orchestra, this iteration of the classic tale is sure to be a new family favorite.
