Volunteer Park and the Volunteer Park Conservatory were done up in seasonal finery Thursday night for the annual Holiday in the Park event with music, hot chocolate, and cookies. The conservatory’s holiday model train will keep running through December every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
This weekend will bring some good opportunities for the gift giving season to Capitol Hill as the Punk Rock Flea Market hosts its December edition at 15th Ave E’s Quality Flea Center:
You can find more ideas for neighborhood shopping, markets, and pop-ups on the 🎁 Shop the Hill page.
Meanwhile, the Capitol Hill Community Council invites you to its holiday party and ugly sweater contest next Wednesday at E Pike’s A/Stir.

Thank you for keeping up with all the cool events on the Hill! This is the only consistent source of fun neighborhood happenings and I appreciate it!
The train at the conservatory is so cool! Last time I saw it, it had little puffs of smoke, a whistle and several little train station stops. Also, conservatory Santa is way better than drunk mall Santa! Thanks for the heads up!
