Main Street Chestertown welcomes thousands of residents and visitors
for its annual Dickens of a Christmas during this two-day celebration of the season.
“Christmas, and the end of the year, is definitely a time when people try their hardest to begin afresh, a good time; a kind, forgiving, charitable, pleasant time; when men and women seem by one consent to open their shut-up hearts freely.”
– Charles Dickens
