Festive Home 2025 Opens at Ridgefield Guild of Artists!
Holiday Showcase and Maker's Market is Here!

Ridgefield Guild of Artists is pleased to bring Festive Home 2025 to town for another great holiday market experience! This year’s fundraiser event runs from Saturday, November 15th – Sunday, December 14th. "Our Preview Night festivities kicks off Friday, November 14th, from 5-7pm. Come celebrate with us, and get the first peek of this year’s Festive Home Showcase!” Preview tickets are $25 online @ www.rgoa.org or $30 at the door. There will be holiday music, delightful drinks and festive fare to enjoy! Free admission shopping begins Saturday, November 15th.
“We’re embracing Hometown Traditions for Festive Home 2025. Visitors will find a transformed Guild with tartan plaids and a cozy, homey vibe.” The normally white-washed gallery walls magically become a colorful holiday wonderland, featuring vignettes anchoring each room by four local designers. Each vignette highlights a member artist. This year, we have over 60 artisans selling hand-crafted goods including holiday décor items, ornaments, knit-ware, pottery, glass works, candles, stationery, wood pieces, jewelry, tea towels, and so much more! Member artists have donated “Hometown Traditions” small canvases for sale at $50 each, and more have submitted wall art and prints filling the walls. Guild elves have sourced some hand-selected items, as well. “There’s lots to see and loads of items for gift-giving and decorating, just in time for the holiday season! Join us for a special holiday shopping trip.”
Ridgefield Guild of Artists is located in the white antique barn at the bottom of Halpin Lane, just before the Rail Trail at #34.
