Christmas in St. Louis is a special time in a special place. As you’ll discover in the pages of this festive pictorial book, the Gateway city goes all-out to celebrate the season.
Reminisce about the downtown St. Louis windows, international flavor of Main Street St. Charles, residential light displays of St. Louis Hills, Tilles Park, the drive through Our Lady of the snows, and a myriad of other traditions that have come to define a St. Louis Christmas.
Folklorist and professor Dr. John L. Oldani will share the joys of Christmas as written and photographed in this book. Dr. Oldani is a native St. Louisan and the city’s unofficial ambassador. His passion, study, and mission have been the folklore of St. Louis. He is the author of several books on St. Louis and its special history.
BOOKS WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE THE EVENING OF THE PROGRAM.
