SHOP IN NYACK & DROP YOUR KIDS AT NYACK CENTER

How does holiday shopping (and maybe a bite to eat) in our beautiful village sound?

This Saturday from 12-4PM, the Village of Nyack is hosting a kids’ drop-off Holiday Movie Event (ELF 12/6/25)

at the The Nyack Center on South Broadway in Nyack.

You drop off the kids, and they can watch a holiday movie, do some crafting with Ms. Maija, eat some snacks, and have a fun time. Meanwhile, you can do some holiday shopping, get a bite to eat, or even a midday libation.

The drop-off event is only $5/child and is open for kids 5-12 years old, who will all be supervised by the professional staff of the Nyack Center, who provide pre- and after-school programs all year long.

We’re doing this every Saturday in December until Christmas, so make your plans and get your tickets now.
