Village Opens 2 PM & Closes 8 PM

Peoria Riverfront Museum- Outside on the Sun Plaza 

Join us for the inaugural Christmas in the Village at the Peoria Riverfront Museum, in support of the Every Student Initiative! Alison Unkovich, who worked as an educator in Chicago for a decade has now returned to her hometown of Peoria. Her vision of "Christmas in the Village" is to create an event that will bring families even closer together during the holiday season, as well as expand and improve the ESI program. Alison is doing it all with a touch of Christmas Magic!
