Anderson museum to open festive marketplace

The Anderson County Museum will be holding a holiday market in November to help people find unique gifts.

The 17th Annual Mistletoe Market is a shopping experience organized by the Friends of the Anderson County Museum. Several vendors will have stalls at the market, including Mom in Motion, Vdovichenko Bee Farm, and The Studio on Willow Creek. The first day of the event will offer shoppers light refreshments while they check out the booths, and the following day will have activities for kids. Merchants who go to festivals like this may use banner printing to create eye-catching signage for their stalls.

The Friends of the Anderson County Museum is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting the museum’s programs. The group helps fund educational presentations held at the museum and exhibit openings. Members raise money for the Anderson County Museum by holding galas and paying membership dues. The cost to join the organization is $65 for families and $15 for students. Those who join will get emails from the museum about future events and exhibits.

The Mistletoe Market will take place on Friday, November 5 from 4:00 pm to 8:00 pm, and Saturday, November 6 from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm. A complete list of attending merchants and the museum’s current pandemic-related policies for the marketplace can be found on the event’s website.
