Things to Do around Westwood this Weekend: Friday, Dec 2 - Sunday, Dec 4 (UPDATED)
Darlene Cancell
Editor
It's the first weekend of December, which means the return of Westwood's annual Christmas Fairs. It's a great time to shop early, and shop local.
To warm up to the weekend's activities, visit Medfield on Friday for its Holiday Stroll, which includes three indoor sites.
On Saturday, stick around Westwood for the First Baptist Church Holly Fair and the First Parish Christmas Fair & Silent Auction. Westwood Artists, which in the past also held a holiday shopping event on the first Saturday of December, this year will have some members participating as vendors at the two church fairs. Westwood Community Chest is joining in the action as well, selling luminaries for its Luminary Night next weekend, an effort to light up and unite the town. And just over the town line, BSV, the German Club, holds its winter market in Walpole.
Sunday offers a more relaxing option after Saturday's shopping. Sit back and enjoy the vocal harmonies of the award-winning New Sound Assembly Barbershop Chorus as they perform in a Christmas concert.
