Shop for holiday goodies, artisan crafts, art and more at the Mistletoe Market at Baldwin Park on Friday, December 8 and Saturday, December 9, 2023.
Under the shade of oaks in Midtown’s Baldwin Park, the Mistletoe Market returns for two days of artisan goods and craft shopping, along with hands-on workshops, music, photo ops, a visit with Santa, and more.
This year’s holiday experience welcomes 30 artists and makers, showcasing unique creations that make for great gift-giving. Among them, you’ll find the textile arts of Mariam O’Brien, home decor with an artistic touch by Anna Naumenko, environmental artwork from Charles Washington, and custom-decorated sugar cookies and sweet treats by Samantha Peterson.
Throughout the leafy park, you’ll also spot photo-worthy moments including a chance to snap a pic with Santa, strike a pose at selfie stations, and capture the festive holiday decor.
A great environment for all ages, Mistletoe Market provides a relaxing wine garden for adults, and the opportunity to watch pavement artwork come to life by skilled chalk artists.
ArtJam sessions also return this year, offering a slate of free, hands-on maker and creator workshops for kids and adults—perfect for creating handmade gifts for loved ones this holiday season. Seating is limited for these DIY events, so be sure to RSVP in advance. Check out the full schedule below for workshop times and to register for free.
