November 22 – December 14, 2024
This annual event begins in mid-November when the community is invited to a gingerbread decorating workshop with Patrick Mulcahy. Each year scores of community members decorate gingerbread houses and bring them to the center to create the Gingerbread Village. Saturday visits will feature hands-on Nordic holiday craft activities, stories, and traditions to be shared for all to enjoy.
Help us to build our annual Gingerbread City!
