Want to participate?
Families, individuals (all ages!), and businesses are invited to design and build their own gingerbread masterpieces. Your creation can be simple or elaborate, realistic or whimsical—the only limit is your imagination!
It is FREE to participate.
There is no theme as we’d like to see what our community creates! Give us a heads up that you’re bringing your gingerbread house by emailing [email protected] to let us know.
Gingerbread lenders must drop off their entries between Tuesday, December 9 through Sunday, December 14 at the Museum’s Front Desk (please check out Visit Us page for open hours!). Participants will be asked to fill out a simple exhibition card, including Name, Category (Child, Adult, Business), Contact Information, Title and 1-2 Sentences on your gingerbread structure. Your name, title, and description will be displayed next to your gingerbread house for the week.

ALL gingerbread houses must be picked up on Sunday, December 21 by 4:00 pm, unless you would like the Museum to dispose of it for you or if other arrangements have been made.
