- Things to do around town
New Canaan
Is a truly enchanting place with a rich blend of culture, history, and vibrant community life! The annual holiday stroll through Downtown brings such a festive and warm atmosphere to the town. With its mix of historic architecture and artistic landmarks such as Grace Farms and the Glass House, there's clearly something for everyone. Have you had the chance to visit any of these spots, or participate in the holiday stroll?
The town of New Cannan’s website is great! It did most of my homework for me.
