Bethlehem, Lehigh Valley, PA., January 3, 2025 – ArtsQuest is excited to host the Three Kings Celebration presented by PPL and sponsored by B. Braun Medical Inc. For the 13th year, this all-ages event, which is free to attend and is packed with fun-filled activities including live music, starting at 2 p.m. on Sunday, January 5, 2025.
“We are entering our 13th year celebrating Three Kings Day at ArtsQuest. Over the years, the celebration has grown but hasn’t lost the traditions of live “parranda” style music, sharing traditional Puerto Rican dishes, a visit from Einstein the Snow Camel, the reading of the Three Kings story and, of course, the Three Kings handing gifts to all the children,” says Myrna Rivera, Chair of ArtsQuest’s Latin Programming Committee. “It is truly a wonderful way to close out the holiday season.”
Follow the star to Bethlehem this January as SteelStacks celebrates El Dia de los Reyes (Three Kings Day), the cherished religious and cultural tradition of many Latin American countries. During the Three Kings Celebration, children are encouraged to come hear a reading of the Story of the Three Kings followed by gift giving. Kids can also take part in a variety of fun-filled activities including arts and crafts and delicious food for purchase from Holy Infancy Church while enjoying live music.
“The Three Kings Celebration is a special event each year to honor diverse traditions and cultures during the holiday season,” says Shayna Super, ArtsQuest Music Programming Director and Executive Director of Levitt Pavilion SteelStacks. “We look forward to sharing this day with the community!”
Thank you to Allentown’s Marine Toy for Tots division and the Carlos Lopez Family for their generous contributions to this event.
