College Park's annual Holiday on the Drive street event is sure to be a crowd-pleaser for the whole family.

Retailers and restaurants will be open up and down the drive for the occasion. Bring a blanket or lawn chair and enjoy the season!
Then mosey on down to Infusion Tea -- local artist Andrea Canny will be debuting her collection at her opening reception from 7p - 9p, and we will be celebrating our Fourth Birthday.
A million thanks to all of you for your love and support over these past four years. We LOVE being your neighborhood tea cafe, and we thank you for the opportunity to create quality vegetarian fare and inspiring programming for such a fantastic community. Cheers!
