This year, even Santa is getting into the virtual spirit.
In its effort to promote its merchants and “Take Loudoun Home,” The Village at Leesburg is offering Holi-DIY kits with local shops. Participants can buy a kit from a participating restaurant or shop, then watch an online session with Santa completing the activity and follow along. Videos will be released on Saturday, Dec. 5 on the Village at Leesburg’s Facebook page, IGTV and YouTube channel; here is a sneak peek.
