our story
Started in 2015 by a small group of volunteers at Christ Lutheran Church, Holiday Marketplace has since grown to include over 40 artisans annually.
Our talented artisans over the past seven years have ranged in disciplines from jewelry to mosaics, jams to cupcakes, paper crafts to wearables, and so much more.
Each year, all event proceeds benefit a different mission or outreach program selected by the Social Ministry Team of Christ Lutheran Church.
Examples of past outreach include The Shepherd's Shelf Food Pantry, California Wildfires Disaster Relief, Prayers & Poinsettias, Martin Luther Silver Springs School, Gift of Life, Middle East & European Refugees, Guatemalan and Indian orphanages, Seaman's Church Institute, Lutheran Settlement House, Lutheran Disaster Response, Sanctuary Village and the Bean Bag Program.
