Hicks Holiday Candyland Edition: toys, food and family activities in Wilmington
Toys, food and family activities—not a published performance schedule—define what is currently announced for Hicks Holiday Candyland Edition. The gathering is set for noon to 3 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 19, 2026, at William “Hicks” Anderson Community Center.
A community center with a local history
The center opened in 1972 as West Center City Community Center and was later renamed for William “Hicks” Anderson, a Wilmington youth and community advocate. His work addressed education, fair housing, hunger and poverty, with education a particular focus.
The center’s broader work includes family and youth services, after-school academic and recreational programs, and community activities. That ongoing role gives the holiday event a neighborhood setting; those regular services are not listed as part of the Candyland afternoon.
