One of the simplest joys of the season is driving around and looking at the impressive Christmas displays in front of homes. This Christmas in Chester Light & Sound Show gives all of those other displays a run for their money. Pack up the kids, fill a Thermos with some hot chocolate, and get ready for this unforgettable experience.
The old Chester school, now The Center of Creativity, is a grand old building that gets all dressed up each year to celebrate the holidays. The magnificent holiday display draws visitors from all around.

The schoolhouse’s owner, artist Cindy Chinn, and her helpers spend hours and hours preparing the display each year. It’s no simple task - there are thousands of lights and hundreds of feet of wire to be carefully arranged.

The community has embraced this wonderful holiday tradition. Individuals and businesses from Chester and beyond donate each year to keep the display up and running for everyone to enjoy.
