Harmony Museum’s Annual German Christmas
Market
The Harmony Museum’s annual WeihnachtsMarkt—a Christmas market in
the German tradition that has become a major regional attraction—was held on
Saturday and Sunday, Nov. 9 & 10, in the heart of Harmony’s National Historic
Landmark District.
The festival has become the museum’s prime annual fundraiser while
presenting seasonal gift-shopping in a family-fun atmosphere. The thousands of
visitors who attend each year find handcrafted and German imports. Artisans
and vendors are chosen to participate based on the quality of their offerings;
there’s no stereotypical “shopping mall festival” stuff. Entertainment, food and
refreshments also reflect Harmony’s German heritage.
Almost 50 artisans and specialty vendors provide the market part of
WeihnachtsMarkt. Museum quilters and weavers demonstrate their work.
