Day 1 of the 2025 Cookie Walk unfolded yesterday at St. Nicholas of Myra Orthodox Church on Avenue A and 10th Street.
The annual neighborhood tradition brought a steady stream of visitors down to the church basement, where long tables were packed with dozens of homemade cookies and desserts.
As always, the setup was straightforward: grab one of the provided boxes (or two) and circle the cookie-lined tables, filling them with your favorites along the way.
This year's Cookie Walk carries added significance. St. Nicholas recently marked its 100th Anniversary Jubilee, and the parish is celebrating the milestone with 100 varieties of cookies, while keeping the event's familiar, low-key format intact.
New for 2025, the parish has also created a children's storybook inspired by the Cookie Walk, a tale that begins and ends in the East Village, with a few stops in Manhattan in between.
Day 2 continues today, from noon to 3 p.m. — or until everything is gone.
