We want to invite everyone to a social-distancing Christmas event!
My husband, Ryan Jones, has created the Jones Family Christmas Light and Music Show at our home on 1748 Abbington Hill in Lexington.
Ryan, who is visually impaired, has synchronized Christmas lights and music for a beautiful and meaning display. We have recorded a narration of the Christmas story to accompany the show. The show consist of Trans-Siberian Orchestra Christmas songs.
The show is FREE and starts December 1 and ends January 1. The show runs each night from 6:30-9:00pm except during heavy rain.
The show can be watched from your car, and the music and narration can be heard by tuning to 89.5 FM.
