Visit Santa at Briarwood Mall

by Tom Stachler,ABR,CDPE - Group One Realty Team

Santa is leaving the toy-making and Christmas-list reading to the elves in order to visit with the wee little ones who come to do their 2013 holiday shopping at Briarwood Mall. Jolly Old Saint Nick made his first appearance at the mall on Friday, Nov. 8th, and will be inviting kiddies to sit on his lap through Tuesday, Dec. 24th, during the following time periods:

  • 10:00 AM – 8:00 PM, Monday - Saturday
  • Noon – 6:00 PM, Sunday

Briarwood Mall

Briarwood Mall is located at 100 Briarwood Circle in Ann Arbor and features a number of popular retailers, some of which include Athleta, Soma, Vera Bradley, Brighton Collectibles, Michael Kors, L’Occitane, LUSH, White house Black Market and Yankee Candle.

While you have the children at the mall, be sure to stop into Elephant Ears, a locally owned shop that specializes in children's clothing and toys located near Von Maur, so you can surreptitiously find out what they would love to discover under the tree this Christmas. In addition to making this holiday season truly memorable, take the kids skating at Briarwood Winter Wonderland.

In October, Briarwood put the finishing touches on an extensive renovation project, which included remodeling of the entrances, new seating and charging stations, new way-finding signage, and a new play area, family restroom and guest services section in the Von Maur wing.
