Come out to the soon-to-be permanent Grays Ferry Triangle for an event to celebrate the shortest day of the year.

The event will include fun for all in the holiday light-decorated space. While there is fun for all, it is also a happy hour event for adults to enjoy some alcoholic beverages. Grace Tavern will be serving up hot-buttered rum specials for the adults and The Igloo will have half-priced hot chocolates for the kids.

The event will run from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. outside at the Grays Ferry Triangle at 23rd and South.
