In an eB次元官网网址letter sent to subscribers, the museum announced a number of December events, including the annual holiday decorating of Old Town, a gallery on the third floor.

The staged 20th-century B.C. town has been dolled up for the holidays, with festive garlands, snow-tipped trees and twinkling lights. Visitors can walk through the decorated Old Town until Dec. 31, after which it will be closed indefinitely.

From Dec. 4 to 31, The Polar Express will be showing in IMAX 3-D at the museumB次元官网网址檚 theatre, and the experience includes hot chocolate and popcorn for viewers. The museumB次元官网网址檚 in-house train conductor, Harris Schwartz, will be there to greet guests before the show.

On Dec. 21, families can tune in for a call with Father Christmas at home over Zoom. The RBCM@Home event promises stories and even a photo opportunity during the 6 to 6:30 p.m. call.

The museum will be closed for the holiday on Dec. 25 and Jan. 1, 2022.
