Plant City was granted a Victorian themed holiday event during New Hope @ the Cornerstone’s Old Fashion Christmas festivity. Members of the church and the community dressed in their best pre-1900s costumes on Saturday to celebrate Christmas at the chapel.
New Hope decorated the building from steeple to basement with a Gingerbread Forest, nativity scene, festive wreaths and more. The night was filled with hot chocolate, a chocolate fondue fountain, Victorian carolers, a symphony style string performance, a Christmas photo booth and a dashing horse and buggy ride.
Carolers stood on the steps of the building and sang out Christmas favorites, while attendees sipped apple cider and occasionally joined in with the music. The monthly classic car show in downtown Plant City was also taking place, drawing many from the area to the festivities.
