Santa and the grinch are in town for the holidays.

Families lined up inside of Village Green Shopping Centre Saturday to get their holiday photos. The cheery display is set up in the centre of the mall — you can’t miss it. Santa will be on the scene daily from now until Christmas Eve.

Photographer Fiona Hook from Image Studios will be also be stationed there to snap the professional shots. Photos with Santa are available for purchase between 9:30-11:30 am., 12 p.m.-1:30 and 2:30-6 p.m. Monday through Friday and 11 a.m. - 2 p.m. and 2:30- 4 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. Christmas eve has different hours: photos will be available from 9:30 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Pictures with the Grinch will take place less often. He was at the mall for the first day of festivities on Dec. 1 and will return next Sunday (Dec. 9) and Saturday, Dec. 15 and Dec. 22 during the same hours listed above.

Editor’s note: an earlier version had not included the 9:30-11:30 a.m. option Monday-Friday.
