Santa Claus is coming to town, and he’s bringing the magic of the season to Ozark Regional Library-Ironton on Saturday, December 2nd. Gather your loved ones and join us for a day filled with stories, crafts, snacks, and cherished memories from 10 AM to 12:30 PM.

The highlight of the event is story time where Santa’s Elf will read beloved Christmas tales to children and families. There will be story sessions every half hour, starting at 10:30 AM and running until 12 PM. These stories are sure to captivate and entertain all ages.

We will be creating Christmas books during this event. This craft activity allows kids to get creative and make their very own holiday keepsakes to treasure for years to come. Children and families can also enjoy a delightful ornament coloring activity, adding a personal touch to their holiday decorations. Attendees will have the opportunity to take home free books while supplies last, fostering a love of reading and the holiday spirit.
But wait, there’s more! Capture the magic of the day by taking photos with Santa himself. Remember to bring your smartphones to snap that perfect holiday picture.

We extend our deepest gratitude to our generous sponsors: Iron County Health Coalition, the Henderson Family, GFWC Mina Sauk Club, and Modern Woodmen Financial. Their support makes this event possible and helps bring joy to our community during this special season.
