A Celebration of Local Creativity

The Yuletide Holiday Marketplace has become one of Spokane’s most anticipated seasonal traditions — a place where creativity meets community just in time for the holidays. Each year, the Spokane Art School curates an impressive lineup of artists representing a wide range of mediums, from ceramics and glasswork to paintings, fiber arts, jewelry, photography, woodwork, and sculpture.

This year’s featured artists include Maggie Wolcott, Nan Drye, Linnea Tobias, Shannon Haight, Gayle M. Kruger, Gay Waldman, Ebbie Shellans, Katie Frey, Michelle Schneider, Sonny and Lisa Moeckel, Ruly Deen, Elizabeth Parker, and Sheila Evans — all celebrated for their craftsmanship and unique creative voices. Each booth offers something different, whether you’re drawn to abstract mixed media, intricate metalwork, or cozy, handcrafted home décor.

More Than a Market — It’s a Movement

Yuletide is more than just a shopping event — it’s a meaningful way to support local artists and sustain Spokane’s art community. Every purchase made at the marketplace directly supports both the artists themselves and the nonprofit Spokane Art School, which provides art education and creative opportunities throughout the Inland Northwest.

By shopping here, you’re not just buying gifts; you’re investing in Spokane’s cultural heartbeat. You’ll meet artists face-to-face, hear the stories behind their creations, and perhaps even find inspiration for your own artistic pursuits.

A Warm and Festive Atmosphere

The atmosphere at the Yuletide Holiday Marketplace is as inviting as the art itself. The Spokane Art School fills with holiday music, seasonal decorations, and the hum of conversation as visitors browse the displays. Whether you come alone, with friends, or as a family outing, you’ll find it easy to linger — discovering new artists, connecting with others, and soaking up the joy of the season.

You can also enjoy light refreshments and demonstrations throughout the day, giving you an inside look at the creative processes behind some of the featured works. From watercolor painting to pottery glazing, the Yuletide event highlights not only what artists make, but how they make it.

Why You’ll Love It

The Yuletide Holiday Marketplace is the perfect way to experience Spokane’s thriving art scene while finding truly one-of-a-kind gifts. Every piece carries the personality and passion of its maker — something no store-bought present can match.

Whether you’re an art collector, a holiday shopper looking for something meaningful, or simply someone who appreciates creativity, this event promises a full day of discovery, inspiration, and local pride.

So come celebrate the season surrounded by color, texture, and imagination — and support the artists who make Spokane such a creative and vibrant place to call home.
