With the December calendar speeding by the Opera House in Boothbay Harbor announces its final events of the 2022 Season.
The 16th Annual Gingerbread Spectacular kicks off on Friday, Dec. 16, with a preview party from 5-7 pm. While the Spectacular will be open throughout the weekend, those in attendance on Friday night will enjoy the sounds of the Sheepscot Jazz and Swing quartet while viewing the just unveiled gingerbread creations. The judges’ awards will be announced, the bar will be open, and the holiday bake sale corner will have an abundance of cakes and cookies, pies and breads, all wrapped for holiday giving or immediate eating.
The Gingerbread Spectacular will be open from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 17, and from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 18. The Friends holiday bake table will be restocked with more fresh baked goods, community members will perform on stage and the stars of the show – the dozens of gingerbread creations will be available for auction.
The Holiday Potluck returns to the Opera House on Wednesday, Dec. 21, set against a backdrop of trees and thousands of twinkling lights. There are no tickets required for this event, but all are asked to bring a main dish, side dish, salad or dessert to share. Guests are also asked to bring utensils and dinnerware if possible. The bar will open at 5:30 p.m., with the potluck dinner scheduled to begin at 6 pm.
The final musical event of the 2022 season immediately follows the potluck dinner. Pianist Kevin Kiley will be joined by vocalists John Adams, Devin Dukes, Abby Hutchins and Tommy Waltz singing the music of the season. Audience members interested in only attending the musical performance should plan to arrive at 6:30 pm.
