HUNTSVILLE – Apparently the Grinch has formed an alliance with Jack Frost and put a damper on some holiday activities.
Because of the frigid temperatures in the forecast for Sunday, Christkindlmarket at The Orion Amphitheater has been canceled for that day, Arts Huntsville announced.
So, while the temperatures Sunday may be frightful, the weather tonight and Saturday will be delightful … and perfect for shopping, food, and fun.
“We considered an early closure on Sunday; however, after discussions with emergency services and the National Weather Service, it became clear that canceling Sunday entirely is in the best interest of everyone’s safety,” said Allison Dillon-Jauken, Arts Huntsville’s executive director. “We look forward to a beautiful Friday evening and a full Saturday — perfect for enjoying an outdoor arts market before the chilly weather hits.
“Come out and support local artists and wrap up your holiday shopping while the weather is still merry and bright!”
