Two Saturday afternoons in December, Town Square Park and the Post Office fill up
with festive lights, music and hot chocolate.

Songs in the Snow has run since 2017 and is the Society’s largest event of the year—
local musicians, school groups and community choirs, visual artists working where
you can watch them, crafts and activities, and hot chocolate to keep the cold off.
Family friendly, and it goes ahead rain or shine.

Free to attend, donations welcome. Presented by the Steveston Historical Society
with the Richmond Arts Coalition.

**Call for artists:** The Richmond Arts Coalition is looking for performers and 
visual artists for this year’s Songs in the Snow. Performers are paid professional
rates for a 25 to 30 minute festive set, and visual artists with interactive ideas
are welcome to pitch. Submissions close Friday, October 23 at 11:59 pm. See the 
[Songs in the Snow 2026 artist call](https://richmondartscoalition.com/sits2026/).
