2026 holiday open house needs

This community gathering brings together artists, printers, makers, families, friends, and curious visitors for an afternoon of printing, food, music, shopping, and good old-fashioned holiday cheer.

We are looking for local businesses, makers, and community members who would like to help make this year's event possible. Sponsorships and in-kind donations directly support the food, equipment, activities, and experiences that make the Open House welcoming and accessible to our community.

Whether you provide a tent, feed a crowd, donate an auction item, or help us create a memorable experience for our guests, your support helps us keep the presses running and the community connected.
