Holiday baked goods, ready-to-give gifts and many handmade local items will be available at the Kenosha Holiday Winter HarborMarket from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 14th at The Stella Hotel & Ballroom, 5706 8th Ave.
“More than 50 vendor booths, featuring gourmet foods, baked goods, gift ideas, decorations and so much more will be featured,” Kenosha HarborMarket Executive Director Andrea Forgianni said. “It’s wonderful to be at The Stella Hotel & Ballroom. It really adds to the fun and beauty of the event.”
The Holiday Winter HarborMarket will be located on the Second Floor Ballroom, and the Lower-Level Heritage and Elks Rooms at The Stella. Both floors are fully accessible for people with health conditions and impairments. The hotel and the space will be festively decorated, Forgianni said. A vendor map will be available next week at www.kenoshaharbormarket.com.
Food and beverages, including alcohol, will be available to eat and drink on site.
Santa Claus is, of course, coming to town and will be on the balcony of the ballroom to greet children and their families from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., Forgianni said.
Haley Klinkhammer will perform holiday music and more from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., in the ballroom.
“If you are looking for holiday gifts and for a way to get into the holiday spirit, this is the place to be,” Forgianni said. “Many vendors will feature items in gift baskets and holiday containers, so it will make holiday giving easier and much more special.”
Forgianni said this Kenosha HarborMarket’s capstone event and the highlight of the season for both shoppers and local vendors.
“I am grateful to the volunteer Board of Directors for Kenosha HarborMarket, our staff and the staff of The Stella for the planning and implementation of what continues to be a holiday highlight in Kenosha,” Forgianni said.
Parking will be plentiful, both on-street and at the City of Kenosha Downtown Parking Structure, free for public use.
