Saturday is WinterFest in North Adams, Massachusetts.

Mayor Jennifer Macksey ran down the activities for the free seasonal celebration in downtown North Adams at Tuesday’s city council meeting.

“Running to 4 o'clock, we have a whole host of activities, including ice sculpturing, kids’ carnival, of course, the wonderful horses, a bonfire, some readings, and of course, our free skate at the skating rink from 2 to 4 p.m.," she said. "So please come down. We also have a craft fair, and we're bringing back the chowder fest.”

North Adams’ 2023 WinterFest kicks off at 9 a.m.
