It’s officially the holiday season now that Christkindlmarkt is here, a yearly tradition that transforms the Heurich House Museum into a winter wonderland celebrating German heritage in a one-of-a-kind market. The best DC craftsmen come together each year with the museum to showcase and sell their wares, from unique textiles and ceramic items, to housewares, jewelry, and more. 

Christkindlmarkt is a great place to discover new products, support DC artists, and cross a majority of the folks off your holiday gift list. There will be plenty of packaged food for gifting in addition to the on-site dining from Café Berlin, Right Proper Brewing Company, and Rocklands Real Barbeque. Christkindlmarkt runs Friday, November 30 through Sunday, December 2. Early access tickets are available online, or purchase general admission or VIP tickets at the door. Heurich House Museum is just one block off Dupont Circle. There is no on-site parking, so traveling by Metro or circulator is your best bet to get to this event.
