Calling all bakers!  It’s time to plan your gingerbread house for that beloved holiday tradition, the 14th Annual Gingerbread Celebration & Holiday Mart, presented by the Adams County Arts Council and major sponsor Kennie’s Market.  The event will be held at the Arts Education Center, in conjunction with the annual Gettysburg Christmas Festival, and expands to three days, December 1-3. 

The contest is open to families, individuals, young bakers, schools, groups, and nonprofits. The public votes with dollars for these amazing creations. Houses with the most dollars win cash prizes totaling $1,600, courtesy of generous donors. Businesses and restaurants are also encouraged to make a gingerbread house and compete for the coveted Ginger Trophy.

Entry forms and more information are available online at www.adamsarts.org, by calling (717) 334-5006, or at the Arts Education Center, 125 S. Washington St. Gettysburg. The deadline for entry forms is November 22.  

The mission of the Adams County Arts Council is to cultivate an arts-rich community.
