The 2022 Steubenville Nutcracker Village

Bringing the world's largest display of life-size nutcrackers to downtown Steubenville, we're excited to announce this year's Nutcracker Village!

Just 1 week away, buckle up for a new season of Nutcracker fun!

Gluhwein Garden

Translating to "glow wine," the green space across from Leonardo's will be transformed into a Gluhwein Garden to offer warm drinks to everyone braving the cold. From 3pm - 8pm on Fridays and 1pm-8pm on Saturdays and Sundays, the Hidden Acres Winery will be providing wine. All proceeds go to the Steubenville Cultural Trust, a 501(c)3 responsible for the Nutcracker Village!

St. Nicholas Day Lantern Parade

The St. Nicholas Day Lantern Parade is a tradition inspired from the

"Klausjagen" (Nicholas Chase) in Switzerland and the "Laternelaufen" (Lantern Walk) in Germany. Each year, we gather and follow St. Nicholas through the streets of Steubenville, singing traditional carols and carrying our lanterns to the Nativity Creche. Join us on December 4th for this year's Lantern Parade at 7p.m.! Click for more details below!

The Great Nutcracker StoryWalk

Join us for our Christmas StoryWalk on 4th Street! The StoryWalk is a family-friendly activity that takes you along a book-guided trail - or in this case, hunting for pages of the book around the nutcrackers! Pick up your Treasure Map at Leonardo's Coffeehouse (159 N. 4th Street) and if you finish the whole book, bring your map to the Main Library* at 407 S. 4th Street to get a free surprise!
*Main Library is closed on Sundays - you can collect a prize at Leonardo's Coffeehouse on Sundays

Wooden Heart Follies Play

Coming to you December 1-4, 2022, "Wooden Heart Follies" is an original family musical written for the Steubenville Nutcracker Village. It brings nine nutcrackers to life, but with a new twist: comic lyrics have been added!

The story begins once upon a time in a magical land called Steubenville, where the mad scientist nutcracker falls in love with his human designer and turns the Nutcracker Village upside down... Audiences will discover whether nutcrackers really do like sugar plums, and whether or not wooden hearts can fall in love.
