Another Livonia tradition
The Holiday Parade
Livonia youth had a great time
Rain or shine you can count on smiles as crowds lined the streets and participants weathered the rain and sleet. But what is a Christmas Parade without families and neighbors having a good time?
These pictures showcase how the young people came out to be a part of the holiday parade.
Mayor Maureen Miller Brosnan, and thanks for posting these pictures on your Facebook Page, spent the time before the parade meeting and thanking the participants for being a part of what is becoming a Livonia tradition.
Councilmembers Rob Donovic, Scott Bahr, and Brandon McCullough along with Kacie McCullough met up with Mayor Brosnan, Santa and Mrs. Claus. Thanks Brandon for the picture.
State Representative Laurie Pohutsky was on-site walking with volunteers wanting to be a part of this holiday tradition.

Add Livonia's Fine Art Gallery to your
"to do" list in December
|
The current exhibit at the Fine Arts Gallery in the Bennett Civic Center Library features the photography of Tim Haber. During the month of December, you are invited to visit the Fine Arts Gallery and enjoy this art as you stroll through the holiday season in Livonia.
Tim Haber enjoys exploring compositions in nature and life. Light, shadows, colors, and reflections that catch his eye, playful juxtapositions and contrasts that can be something fun or something sobering, something to tell a story. He tries to express what he sees through his mind’s eye.
