Join us to light for the Jasper Star Lighting Celebration!

Celebrate with The Jasper community as we mark the beginning of the holiday season by carrying on the more than half-century-old tradition of lighting the former “Sergeant Jasper” apartments’ iconic rooftop star. The glittering star complements the Charleston Parks Conservancy’s Christmas tree at Colonial Lake and rekindles fond memories and traditions for neighbors who recall the old Sergeant Jasper’s familiar holiday beacon.  

The lighting of the 20-by-20-foot star will take place this year on Monday, December 1 from 5pm-7pm, on the ground-level plaza between The Jasper’s office, retail and residential buildings along Broad Street. 

Adding to the magic of the evening, a young resident from The Jasper will be selected to help in lighting the 20-by-20-foot star, upholding the cherished tradition, and ensuring its continuity for generations to come. This ground-level plaza lighting ceremony promises to be a heartwarming tribute, the glittering star gracefully complementing Colonial Lakes Christmas tree which will go up Sunday November 30th! We are excited to create a breathtaking harmony of festive lights perfect for the holiday season! 

Join us on 310 Broad Street as we come together to create lasting memories and embrace the wonder of the season. All are welcome to partake in this joyous occasion, to cherish the warmth of community spirit and to revel in the magic that illuminates Broad Street during this special time of year.
