• The SWEA Christmas fair in San Francisco is a miniature yet strong Swedish experience - Americans, Swedes, American-Swedes and Swedish Americans all gather for a day at St. Mary’s Cathedral. Lucia procession, Swedish folk music and an exhibit of Christmas Traditions Past and Present made this a fun day for the entire family. Close to 2,500 came to shop for holiday gifts and enjoy traditional Swedish food and drink along with the performances.
