It happens only once a year! The Northern Virginia Christmas Market returns to the Dulles Expo Center in Chantilly, VA on November 9-11, 2007 featuring over 300 juried artisans from across the country offering fine arts, functional and decorative pottery, handcrafted jewelry, stained glass, woodcrafts, photography, toys, collectible bears, fiber arts and much more. From whimsical to country, contemporary to casual, it's the finest collection of affordable crafts in the region, including thousands of creatively-made gifts, fresh holiday decorating ideas and one-of-a-kind Christmas collectibles. Whether you 're a twenty-something or a baby-boomer, there’s something unique and extraordinary for every taste and budget.
Not just another ordinary craft show; it's a huge holiday marketplace with over twenty-five “Taste of the Holidays” specialty food vendors offering gift-packaged gourmet fare such as almond pound cakes, holiday cookies, spicy salsas, fudge-by-the-pound, fruit cakes, sparkling cider and homemade jams and jellies. Discover tasty homemade goodies ideal for creating extraordinary gift baskets, loading up Santa’s stockings and gathering hard-to-find executive and hostess gifts.
The Northern Virginia Christmas Market holds a major food drive each year benefiting the Capital Area Food Bank by offering 50 cents off admission to attendees donating cans of non-perishable food. Last year a total of over 5,000 pounds of food was collected during the 3-day event. One adult $7.00 admission covers entry and parking for all three days. Children twelve and under are free.
The Capital Area Food Bank is the largest public, nonprofit food and nutrition education resource in the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Area. Last year the Capital Area Food Bank distributed 20 million pounds of food through more than 700 partner agencies in the region. The Capital Area Food Bank has served the National Capital Region for over 25 years. For more information visit their web site at www.CapitalAreaFoodBank.org.
