Posada Navideña

Annual
Posada Navideña

Saturday, December 14, 9:30 AM - 12 PM

Roslindale Community Center

A true Mexican and now Roslindale tradition - the Nativity re-enactment of Joseph and Mary seeking lodging. Come dressed warm and ready to carol for “Posada” or “Shelter" around the Village accompanied by Mariachi Estrella de Boston and expect to be greeted with goodies for the children, warm tamales, champurrado (hot chocolate) and other Mexican treats.  We will also host a mini-craft fair, selling handmade items made by the Roslindale Community Center's knitting club!

We will depart from the Roslindale Community Center at 10 AM sharp to Adams Park and other participating businesses.  We will return to the community center to end our celebration where the Friends will greet us with books, piñatas and goodie bags for the kids.  We will also have coloring and ornament making activities for the kids from 11 am - 12 pm.

Please note that in case of inclement weather the programming will be indoors and begin at the community center at 10 am!

Here is video of the mariachi band singing "Feliz Navidad."
