December
Winter arrives, though skiing conditions in the East usually aren't ideal un-
til January. Christmas lights and holiday fairs make the region come alive
during the festive season.
Art Basel
This massive arts fest (

)
has four days of cutting-edge art,
film, architecture and design. More than 250 major galleries from across the globe come
to the event, with works by some 2000 artists, plus much hobnobbing with a glitterati
crowd in Miami Beach.
New Year's Eve
Americans are of two minds when it comes to ringing in the New Year. Some join festive
crowds to celebrate; others plot a getaway to escape the mayhem. Whichever you
choose, plan well in advance. Expect high prices (especially in NYC).
