Women and girls make Christmas garlands at the Andrus Inn during a candlelight tour at Deseret Village in This Is the Place Heritage Park, 2601 Sunnyside Ave. The tours, with costumed villagers portraying Christmas Eve of 1868, include performances by an actor playing Charles Dickens twice nightly. This month marks 150 years since the striking of Utah's first gold coin, and coinsmith Chuck Larson will be selling souvenir coins at the park. Candlelight Christmas, 6-9 p.m., runs through Saturday, Dec. 19, except for Sunday. Admission is $8 for adults and $6 for children.
