Fort Scott Christmas on the Bricks

12/31/2025

Reminiscing on the Christmas on the Bricks celebration and the incredible face painting by Happy Little Faces at Laree + Co. 🎄✨ What a fun and festive time!

Children could be seen all around with amazing face paint, big smiles, and lots of holiday cheer. It truly added to the magic of the season and brought so much joy to our community.

A special thank you to Krista (Hightower) Reida with Happy Little Faces, and to everyone involved in making the face painting such a success.

We’re already looking forward to offering this fun holiday experience again next year! ❤️🎨🎄

What a night to remember! 🎄🎶

We had an absolute blast at the Jake Gill concert during Christmas on the Bricks!

Here are a few photos from the event that capture just how much fun was had. From nonstop Christmas music to plenty of laughs, the energy in the room was amazing — and who could forget Diane Striler stealing the show as “Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer”? 🎤😂

A huge thank you to the Liberty Theatre - Fort Scott for helping facilitate such a fantastic event, and to Jake Gill and his incredible team for the entertainment and for coming to Fort Scott to celebrate Christmas on the Bricks with us. ❤️🎄

We’re so grateful to everyone who came out and made it such a memorable night!

📣 Found at the Chamber! 🎧🎵

We found a pair of wireless headphones/AirPods at the Chamber office during the recent holiday events — including Christmas on the Bricks and other festivities!

We aren’t sure exactly when we noticed them or which event they’re from, but if you think they might be yours, describe what they look like so we can return them to the right owner.

Drop us a message, call, or stop by the Chamber to claim them!

🤍✨ A Huge Thank You to Our Community Helpers! ✨🤍

As we reminisce about getting everything ready for the Christmas on the Bricks Festival, we’re filled with gratitude! What a journey it was setting up, and it simply couldn’t have happened without the help of so many amazing people — especially the incredible students and instructors from the FSCC / FSHS CTE Construction Trades Program.

A special shout-out to:
🔨 Jason Johnson
🔧 Jared Keylon
🪚 Rory Chaplin
…for leading this program and mentoring our future builders with passion and purpose.

This unique partnership between Fort Scott Community College Band (FSCC) and Fort Scott High School (FSHS) brings hands-on construction training right into the high school experience. Under the guidance of Jason Johnson — an instructor who bridges high school and college technical training — students gain real-world skills that set them up for success in the trades. Their hard work and enthusiasm are such a valuable part of the USD 234 Career & Technical Education opportunities. 🛠️🎓

To all the FSHS and FSCC students who showed up, worked hard, and made setup smoother and faster — THANK YOU! You helped transform Main Street into something magical for the season. 💫

📸 Check out some photos of them in action setting up and making it all happen!

We’re so grateful for this community — together we make events like this unforgettable! ❤️
