On Saturday, December 7th, The Arc of Chester County will host its Annual Holiday Fun Fest —a special event that embraces inclusivity, bringing families together for a morning filled with food, fun, crafts, a visit from Santa & Mrs. Claus and Freeze Dancing with Frosty, plus lots of holiday magic! Every detail is designed with care to ensure children of all abilities feel welcome, supported, and part of a joyful community.
