Longtime favorite vendors as well as brand new faces will be bringing their artisan-made products. It's fun for the whole family while you support artists, the School of the Arts, and the local economy as a whole! Here are just some of the things you'll find this year as you shop from vendors who make what they sell: woodworking of all types, home decor and signs, hand-stamped clothing and kitchen linens, fused glass ornaments and jewelry, holiday decor, soy candles and wax melts, soaps, lotions, scrubs and body care, beard oils, knitted hats, gloves & scarves, bags & purses, framed European Art Nouveau period tiles, rustic wooden Santas, quilted and crochet items, tree skirts, alpaca yarn & woven scarves, maple syrup, tomtes & gnomes, bluebird houses, bird feeders, bat houses, handmade fleece jackets, fleece doggie wear, homemade dog treats, nature-inspired jewelry, local honey, homemade fudge, bath & body products, woodfired functional pottery, freshwater pearl jewelry, vintage Swarovski rhinestone pieces, ginger and turmeric candies and syrup, hair clips, yoga bags, aprons, and a wide assortment of delicious breads and baked goods!
Our in-person Kriskindlmarkt event will be held completely outdoors this year- just like the European markets our event is modeled on! We will have a great combination of vendors- longtime favorites as well as new faces. As always, our vendors sell items they make themselves.
