At Day 1 of the Cookie Walk

Photos and reporting by Stacie Joy 

The 2024 edition of the Cookie Walk is underway this weekend at St. Nicholas of Myra Orthodox Church on Avenue A and 10th Street. 

Yesterday kicked off the event, offering one spot in the East Village where lines and Santas were anything but annoying. (And don't be turned off by the line: It moves quickly.)
We saw Rev. Father William (Bennett) and longtime event organizer Kim Busel at the event...
This year's theme is "international cookies," with over 80 varieties. (The church's 100th anniversary is next year, and they hope to have 100 cookie types available.) 

In addition to cookies, the event features a holiday gift market, a craft station for kids, a photo station with Santa and his elves, a cocoa bar with an array of toppings, and a gift wrap section for packaging your cookie boxes. 

Here's a look around...
The Cookie Walk is back in action today, with posted hours of noon to 3 p.m. (you may want to get there closer to the start time).
