Christmas in Collinsville: A Gallery

Village celebrates holiday spirit.

 

Collinsville celebrated its traditional 2-day holiday event Friday night and Saturday with a champagne walk, horse-drawn carriage rides, Canton Historical Museum gallery of trees, a charitable craft fair and more. The town's Parks and Recreation Department also incorporated its tree lighting into the event.

Friday night, Santa Claus greeted children outside the Canton Historical Museum, local businesses were decorated for the holidays, and visitors took horse-drawn carriage rides through the luminary-filled streets. Later businesses hosted a champagne walk.
