West Side Festival of Lights continues

 The Heart of the City Neighborhoods, Inc. is holding the fourth annual Neighborhood Festival of Lights on the lower West Side. The festival started Nov. 23 and runs through Jan. 6.
  The festival is open to both renters and homeowners. To enter, all you have to do is put up ornamental lights on the outside of your home so that the judges can see them from the street.
  The winners of the festival will be announced at 2 p.m.on Jan. 8 at Karpeles Manuscript Museum, 453 Porter Ave., where prizes will be awarded.
  You can vote online for your favorite lighting display or volunteer by contacting your block club president or by emailing ProspectHill.Alliance@gmail.com. By Brian Geerhard and Erica Lindo
