Festive Home 2025 is Coming to Town!

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, with extended shopping hours: Tuesday – Friday, 12-5pm and Saturday & Sunday, 11am – 5pm, closed Mondays. “Our traditional Preview Night festivities kicks off Friday, November 14th, from 5-7pm. Come celebrate with us, and get a sneak peek of this year’s Festive Home Showcase!” Preview tickets are $25 online (buy tickets here) or $30 at the door. There will be holiday music, delightful drinks and festive fare to enjoy! Free admission 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.” Our white-washed gallery walls magically become a colorful holiday wonderland, featuring vignettes anchoring each room by four local designers: Molly Hirsch of Molly Hirsch Interiors, Jill Rae of Jill Rae Designs, Nicole Fortson and Sarah Sullivan of The Tweaked Home, and Emma Paradis of Finch Baldwin Design. 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, as well. Guild elves have sourced some hand-selected items. “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.” Follow us on Facebook and Instagram!

Special hours for Festive Home are Tuesday – Friday, 12-5pm and weekends, 11am – 5pm. Closed Mondays. For Thanksgiving week, we will be open Tuesday, November 26th and Wednesday, November 27th from 12-3pm. Closed for Thanksgiving (have a great holiday!), reopening Friday, November 29th – Sunday, Dec 1st from 11am – 5pm. Celebrate and shop this holiday season with the Guild, and support our annual fundraiser benefitting Guild programming.

Now in our 51st year, Ridgefield Guild of Artists has grown from its humble beginnings as a clubhouse-of-sorts for a couple dozen local artists to show and share their work…to today, a thriving 350+ member artist guild, offering exhibitions, special events, classes, and support for regional artists! We are a long-standing 501c3 non-profit arts organization. All contributions are gratefully accepted.
