Event DetailsAiring of the Quilts originated years ago and was an annual tradition in the late spring or fall. The women would bring out all the quilts and hang them on the clotheslines, drape on the porch or any place that they could be aired out and prepped for the cold winter months ahead. That old tradition as turned into many forms of the same concept but more for show and inspiration vs the utility of winter prep. Draping the pews of a church with quilts has been a new tradition in it's own right - whether for inspiration or memorial it is always a warm hearted feel to see all the quilts that have been pieced with love displayed in such a lovely backdrop as a church. SewEndipitous is lucky to partner with The Episcopal Church of Our Saviour on Caldwell Street to bring you this activity!

Event DetailsThe tradition of lighting the tree has looked different over the years as the tradition has grown and evolved with the times. Originally, a decorated Christmas tree in Main Building (now Tillman Hall) was lit to usher in the Christmas season. In 1935, the Christmas tree lighting was moved to the Southern magnolia tree on front campus, which was selected as the 2010 Heritage Tree by Trees SC for the great community spirit the tree evokes. In 1969 the annual tree lighting became an official event, and it continues as part of the City of Rock Hill’s ChristmasVille. Today, the flagpole at the fountain is now lit to celebrate the season to ensure the health and sustainability of the Southern Magnolia. This festive tradition will be held on Friday, Dec. 6, 2024 at 6 p.m. on the Tillman Hall Front Lawn.
Event DetailsThe City of Rock Hill Christmas parade is one of the few lighted nighttime parades within the state.
