Brookside Holiday Lights
Each December, Brookside presents a community light display and everyone is welcome to participate!
Partnering again with The New England Holiday Light Company, Brookside Church invites everyone to contribute to the community holiday light display. You can donate a strand or strands of lights or even a Christmas Star in honor or memory of loved ones, those we’ve lost, those we pray for, or those we adore.

Christmas at the Manning House
Saturday, December 13, 2025
Enter through the large wooden doors of the Manning House and be transported back to 1925. The smell of fresh pine and gingerbread greets you as Mary Manning welcomes you in to enjoy a holiday celebration in her landmark home. Calvin Coolidge is president. The Jazz Age and the Art Deco movement are in full swing and the Great Gatsby was just published. Find out what Christmas in Manchester was like a century ago.
This is a limited, timed ticketed engagement with tours at the top of every hour from 1 - 7 p.m. on Saturday, December 13, 2025. The 45 -minute tours of the Manning House will be given by Mary Manning - played by a living history interpreter from the Manchester Historic Association. The halls will be decked by Dew Collective and festive refreshments will be served following the tour. The event is handicap accessible from the ramp door next to the Thrift Shop. Proceeds go to the restoration and preservation of the Manning House.
