Holiday Marketplace 50% off sale at the Nellie McKnight Museum

The Nellie McKnight Museum , 70 Main St. Ellington, is brimming with holiday cheer and offering huge savings. This festive shopping experience brings together two beloved features—Nellie’s Mercantile and the Holiday Boutique—creating a warm, welcoming destination for finding meaningful gifts and unique treasures.

Visitors can enjoy the museum’s Mercantile Holiday Sale, open Friday from 3 to 7 p.m. and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Shoppers will find 50% off most items, with exclusions for local artisan wares, books, and honey. The popular Holiday Boutique returns with a festive favorite: fill a bag for just $10. It’s the last chance before Christmas to pick up unique gifts while supporting the Ellington Historical Society.

All events are free. Additional information can be found on the Ellington Historical Society’s website and social media pages.

The Nellie McKnight Museum welcomes visitors to experience this special holiday tradition—where community, history, and the magic of the season come together.
