Cumberland Town Hall Archives - Indy's Child Magazine

Historic Cumberland turns into a German-style winter market along East Washington Street, closed to traffic for easy strolling. Visitors browse artisan booths with handmade ornaments, knitwear, and seasonal décor, then warm up with bratwurst, sweets, and festive drinks. Families find kid-friendly stations like reindeer games, letters to St. Nick, and free face painting. A community donation drive invites guests to bring basic hygiene items, hats, and gloves to support local neighbors in need. St. Nick greets children at the Gap Meeting House, and a pair of his reindeer stop by later in the afternoon. Live performances run throughout the day and lead into the evening finale with a tree lighting and fireworks.
