Annual Holiday Post Office Lighting
Each year, JHBG organizes the Annual Holiday Post Office Lighting at the Jackson Heights Post Office, a cherished neighborhood tradition that brings the community together to celebrate the season. The event marks the start of the holiday season in Jackson Heights with the lighting of a festive tree and seasonal decorations.
A Community Celebration
The Holiday Lighting draws neighbors of all ages for an evening of seasonal cheer. The event features the ceremonial lighting of the tree at the Post Office, along with seasonal crafts, refreshments, and music. It is a moment for the community to pause and enjoy the warmth and spirit of the holidays together.
Decorating and Seasonal Crafts
JHBG board members and volunteers plan and prepare decorations and craft activities for the event. The holiday crafts station is a favorite among younger attendees and families.
Get Involved
Volunteers are needed to help with setup, decorating, and event logistics. Donations help cover the cost of decorations, supplies, and refreshments. Contact info@jhbg.org to learn how you can contribute.
