The Noah Webster House at 227 South Main Street is excited to host the Sixth Annual Holiday Market in 2025. Enjoy the opportunity to find the best gifts for family and friends while also supporting small, local businesses this holiday season. This market is offered over two weekends, featuring over 20 different local artisans each weekend. Artisans will be set up throughout the museum offering a wide range of handmade gift items.

The Holiday Market will be open for shopping on Saturday and Sunday, November 15 & 16 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. (first weekend), Friday, December 5 from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday, December 6 & 7 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. (second weekend). No registration is required. The museum suggests a $5 donation upon entry, which helps support museum educational initiatives.

The West Hartford Gift Shop is the anchor vendor at the Holiday Market and will have many products available. The gift shop also carries a selection of literary-themed items including scarves, notecards, and drinkware.

The new West Hartford collectible holiday ornament will be announced soon!  A limited number of ornaments are available, so it recommended to pre-order at westhartfordgiftshop.com. Ornaments may be picked up at the Holiday Market.

The museum is offering this holiday tradition to support local businesses, many of them newer and without their own brick and mortar location. Artisans will be showcasing their artwork in many categories including jewelry, candles, pottery, notecards, woodworking pieces, fiber arts and so much more.
