Vancouver Mall, a lifestyle shopping center providing shopping, dining, entertainment and a host of services to residents of Southwest Washington and the Portland, Oregon, metropolitan area (www.ShopVancouverMall.com), will host “Sensory Santa,” a sensory-friendly opportunity for children with special needs and their families to enjoy a visit and private photo session with Santa Claus in a calming environment before the mall opens to the public, in the “Elf”-themed Santa set in the center’s H&M Court from 10:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. on Sunday, December 4th. The event is free of charge, but advance registration is required (one ticket per group/family). Professional photo packages range from $39.99 to $49.99. To reduce overall wait times for photos, families are strongly encouraged to make a reservation in advance of their visit at https://bit.ly/3F0Nuvi.

Guests making an advance reservation will receive one free personalized phone call from Santa before their visit. Those purchasing a photo package online or in person will also receive a free personalized video from the North Pole after their visit.
