salem winterlude lights photoSalem Main Streets and Creative Collective, in partnership with the City of Salem, are pleased to announce the new Salem Winterlude initiative to bring light and creativity to downtown Salem this winter.

This collaborative project is intended to activate and enhance the Essex Street Pedestrian Mall and adjacent public spaces, encouraging safe outdoor and physically distant opportunities for residents to explore and engage with each other throughout the downtown district.

Salem Winterlude celebrates our downtown during the holiday season, and will contribute to small business support initiatives as well as community wellness.

Programmable Lights The Winter Places grant has allowed us to upgrade our usual holiday wreaths and ribbons on the Essex Street Pedestrian Mall with new programmable LED lights.

The Salem Winterlude project will continue and adapt all winter long, including through the Salem’s So Sweet Festival in February.

Mural Backdrops – temporary mural panels painted by local artists have been commissioned and installed around downtown in the following locations:

*Salem Common – Hailey Bonia @flourishartistic
*Artists Row/Front Street entrance – Meg Nichols @m.ink.studios
*Charlotte Forten Park – Emily Larsen and Paige Besse
*East India Fountain – Groveland artist and crafter Tokala Sage Close has been commissioned to create a winter wonderland scene to enliven the East India Fountain.
*Charlotte Forten Park – Salem’s newest park is getting a festive upgrade for the season, including decorated evergreens, seasonal lights, and two temporary mural backdrops.
