What to expect: This year, Santa is making a special stop at the Grand Rapids Public Museum to hear your Christmas wishes on a first-come, first-served basis in the festively decorated Streets of Old Grand Rapids exhibit. Window shop and interact with volunteers in the shops as you wait in line to meet the man from the North Pole.

This experience requires that you bring your own camera. A GRPM staff member will be available to take your photo as a group.

*We recommend arriving early to make sure you don’t miss your chance to say hi and snap a photo with Santa. The line will close at 2:30 p.m.
