We invite you to come to downtown Rockport and Whistlestop Mall, and bring along your family and friends, for another festive weekend of shopping and strolling in our beautiful seaside village on Cape Ann.  Our streets are lined with colorfully lit Christmas trees, and the Dock Square tree is shining brightly.  Vote for your favorite storefront or gallery display as part of Cape Ann Winter Lights, and discover those perfect last-minute stocking stuffer gifts among the lovingly crafted creations available at scores of shops and galleries throughout Rockport.

For the children, look for Sammy the Seagull signs downtown for clues to solve this year’s riddle and win prizes offered by Brothers Brew, Tuck’s Candy Factory, Tuck’s Candy & Gifts, The Fudgery, The Happy Whale, and Rusty and Ingrid Art & Supply.
