SUMMARY:Gingerbread Lane
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to Gingerbread Lane: A Holiday Wonderland\nEach year\, Old Town Artisan Studios transforms its 3-acre art campus into Gingerbread Lane—a magical winter wonderland filled with dazzling lights\, trimmed garlands\, and a stunning 17-foot tree beside Santa’s workshop. From the moment you step through the gates\, you’ll be immersed in the festive spirit of the season! \nMarvel at twinkling displays and savor holiday treats like gingerbread cookies and hot cider from our culinary corner. Let your creativity shine with hands-on activities\, including cookie decorating and clay ornament painting. Enjoy live performances featuring seasonal music\, delightful dance\, and special showcases by talented youth groups from across the Coachella Valley—all at no cost to you and your family. Capture cherished memories at our beautifully decorated Holiday Cottage\, where Santa and Mrs. Claus make special appearances. \nGingerbread Lane is the heartfelt vision of Founder Victory Grund\, who believes in reviving the joy of handmade holiday gifts. “When a person of any age creates a gift by hand\, it becomes a treasure that grows more meaningful with each passing year\,” says Grund. “Creating art together with family or friends can become a tradition\, with the joy of giving at its core.” Gingerbread Lane is more than an event—it’s where holiday memories and traditions are made!
