LIGHTING UP THE SQUARE
Historic Kennett Square is delighted to share that we’ll be wrapping ten large trees along State Street in lights for all to enjoy throughout the holiday season and the dark winter nights through March. We’re grateful to Historic Kennett Square Board member and Square Pear Gallery owner Corien Siepelinga for her vision and hard work to make this project a reality.
Tree lights are beautiful, but we’ve learned that they cost a pretty penny! A donation to Lighting up the Square, in any amount, is a perfect tribute to a loved one and a great way to show your love for our beautiful town.
