Later this month, the Nose Creek Valley Museum will be debuting a brand new fundraising event.

On November 17th, the museum will be hosting the first-ever Little Christmas Market from 11 a.m. until 4 p.m.

Laurie Harvie, Executive Director/Curator of the museum explained what it is all about.

"We're opening up our meeting rooms, but we're also opening our main gallery, military hall and annex for vendors to set up tables, and we'll have a little Christmas market."

The museum is currently looking for local crafters and artists who would like to partake in the event.

"We're inviting the public to come and see if they can find something that they like from somebody local. It's different than our summer events but along the same lines."

According to Harvie, this will be the first time they open all of their exhibit spaces to have a market. They will only be hosting one.

"We just want to see we've got our car boots down pat now, but we want to try this one."

If you are interested in being a vendor, click the Facebook post above. All funds raised during the event will go towards their operations and keeping the lights on.

Over the summer, the museum held its annual Car Boot/Flea Market sales. In total, around $3,000 was fundraised. 

A car boot sale is where residents gather together to sell their items to other residents. It's a garage sale, but it's all in one space.
