1. The Finnish legend of Santa Claus is a little darker than ours. Namely, he shows up and demands presents. And the version of Santa Claus in Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale is after more than presents. Basically, a greedy corporation unleashes demon Santa from his icy mountain and he starts nabbing kiddies. So a couple trappers have to end his ass. The full-length film in Finnish with sub-titles will screen at 2 p.m. at The Grand Cinema.
2. The juried Fine Arts and Crafts Show will be held from 10:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Women's Club of Olympia House in downtown Olympia.
3. Astronauts, Elvis, sky rides, royalty, the Kennedys, religion, topless showgirls, the Canadian tattoo, the Cold War and futurist speculation - the 1962 Seattle World's Fair had it all. The era and its people come to life in The Future Remembered: The 1962 Seattle World's Fair and Its Legacy - a new, coffee-table-style book by Paula Becker and Alan J. Stein filled with fascinating history, stories and pictures to celebrate the fair's upcoming 50th anniversary. Stein will drop by the Tacoma Public Library Main Branch for a 2 p.m. chat, slide show and signing.
4. Gen Silent is a critically-acclaimed documentary from filmmaker Stu Maddux that explores the challenges of six LGBT (lesbian, gay, bi, trans) seniors who face the difficult choice of hiding their friends, their spouses and their entire lives in order to survive in the health care system. The film will screen at 5 p.m. as part of SAGE Olympia's senior gay and lesbian film series at the Capitol Theater.
5. Little Bill and the Blue Notes headlines the Christmas Blues Vespers show at 5 p.m. inside Immanuel Presbyterian Church in Tacoma.
