This season, starting November 20, we’re ditching the bright and merry for something a little more nostalgic and a whole lot more emo. Welcome to Emo Christmas, the pop-up where jingle bells get replaced with sad songs and scream-along anthems. Update your MySpace profile pic, refresh that AOL away message, and relive the days when the only thing that mattered was whether Fall Out Boy or Taking Back Sunday would headline Warped Tour.
For one month only, Arlo Williamsburg x Bucket Listers are transforming the holidays into a full-blown emo and pop-punk wonderland, complete with throwback-themed late-night parties every Friday, celebrating everything from From Under The Cork Tree to Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge. And of course, the bar is serving a lineup of perfectly emotional holiday cocktails, including Welcome to The Black Parade, Snow-Hio Is For Lovers, St. Nick's Cold Brew, I’m Not Okay, Mezcal Confessional, and Ocean Ave Punch. Tickets start at $17.80 per person for general admission, which includes a 90-minute experience plus a welcome cocktail served in an ornament!

The 2025 Local Fiber Holiday Popup store will be open from November 1 to December 28 at 115 South Cayuga Street in Ithaca, NY, right off of the Commons, staffed by Local Fiber members, many of whom raise fiber animals on farms in the area. You'll find an array of items from local wool, alpaca, angora and other animal fibers, and products ranging from millspun and handspun yarns, mittens, hats, socks and gloves, to shawls, scarves and beautiful fiber art, home decor and more! Workshops, demonstrations and social hours will include Thursday evenings from 6 to 8, open fiber arts evenings and How to Wash Locks on 12/11.

This year, the Victorian Lady antique shop in Oneida is on a mission to collect and distribute warm winter coats and accessories to help neighbors facing hardship during these difficult times.
“If you would like to help make someone's winter a little warmer, we would be most grateful!” says Ms. Gerri Gray, the shop’s proprietor. “We are holding the coat drive throughout the fall and winter.” She added, “We also plan to host a few food giveaways, so if anyone wishes to donate any canned food (including pet food) and/or other non-perishable items, they can bring them to the shop during our regular business hours or simply leave them on our front porch.”
Donations of new and gently-used coats, scarves, and gloves are being accepted every Monday and Saturday from noon until 5 p.m. and on all other days by appointment only. The shop, which was featured on Lite 98.7, is located at 302 Main Street, Oneida, NY (at the corner of Stone).
