“Winter Toyland” is the full holiday experience that guests of all ages will enjoy at the Cleveland History Center. Start with the exhibition feature, “HollyDays,” a winter village created by Dennis Hoert. Dennis began the village with 12 houses, and after 18 years of work it now numbers 350 buildings. Named after his wife, the village combines multiple family tributes and recognizable ties to Northeast Ohio. “HollyDays” has 9 trains, Dennis’ depiction of Macy’s Parade and an ode to Lake Erie. This incredible, one-of-a-kind creation is synced to popular holiday music and lights.
