Gingerbread Festival

This event is past.

  • Dec 13, 2014

As families enter the library, they will be invited to follow a Story Walk outlining a favorite gingerbread tale. Families will follow the tale through the library up to Callahan Hall, where the Gingerbread Festival will be taking place.

Children and adults alike will be invited to create their own mock gingerbread house, decorate cookies, enjoy our cocoa bar, and more.

Guests of all ages are encouraged try their luck at a trivia contest, both with adult and child age divisions. Assorted Gingerbread giveaways will be available, including house kits, bookmarks, and more.

The Gingerbread Festival is a free all-ages public program. For more information, contact the Children’s Department at LPLKids@lewistonmaine.gov or (207) 513-3133.

Do you make your own gingerbread houses at home? If so, we would love to display your creation leading up to and at our Gingerbread Festival! Your decorated house can be a donation to the library or be returned to you after the event. For details, or to arrange the display of your creation please contact Danielle at 513-3133 X3504 or defortin@lewistonmaine.gov.
