I'm an east coast girl living in a west coast world. I grew up in New England before moving to SoCal for several years. I then lived in NYC or a year before moving to AZ in 2009. I worked in the entertainment industry for many years of my adult life and have a deep love for photography, writing, and traveling around the U.S. as well as to far-flung locations around the world. Travel is my life and writing about it is a dream!
The last two months of the year are when many of us gear up for the holiday season. We may start to decorate our homes, drive around in search of the best light displays, go holiday shopping, and find seasonal events that will create joyful memories. This year, the Amazing World of Dr. Seuss in Massachusetts will host its annual Grinchmas, an event that is sure to put kids and adults alike in the holiday spirit.
Enter the magical world of your favorite Dr. Seuss characters at The Amazing World of Dr. Suess. Located in the William Pynchon Memorial Building, this whimsical museum is dedicated to the author, his beloved works, and is part of the Springfield Museums in Massachusetts.
Theodor Geisel, aka Dr. Seuss, was a native of Springfield. Born and raised in this city, there's no better place for a museum honoring the author and his works than here.
Inspired by the beloved Dr. Seuss classic, "How The Grinch Stole Christmas," Grinchmas is a joyous holiday celebration featuring a series of events and activities held throughout the season. Visiting the museum this time of year will surely put you in the holiday spirit!
The kickoff to Grinchmas will be on November 26, 2021 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Free with admission to the museum, visitors can partake in crafts, watch and listen to music from "How the Grinch Stole Christmas," and even meet the Grinch himself!
Also on November 26, you don't want to miss The Lighting of the Quadrangle featuring entertainment and a festive, sparkling light display. This event is sure to make the start of your season merry and bright!
On December 4th and 11th from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m., paid museum guests are invited to attend Santa's Workshop and make a gift. Also on December 11, the public is invited to participate in the museum's Holiday Stroll from 5:30-7:30 p.m. During this event, the Grinch, Rudolph, Frosty the Snowman, and Santa will also be in attendance.
All Grinchmas events are fun for the whole family, so why not make this a part of your holiday celebration this year?
