NOLA CHRISTMAS FEST behind the scenes TOUR! For those who are able to stick around for another 20 minutes, you will have the opportunity to have a behind the scenes “sneak peak” of NOLA CHRISTMAS FEST which opens to the public from December 20 – 30th!
***************************
Your MSWIT Board has special Christmas surprises for all members attending including a few fabulous door prizes such as two sets of Mignon Faget Mardi Gras glass sets of 4 (donated by June Fallo). Santa & Mrs. Claus will be on hand for photos and will love to hear what’s on your wish list this year!
***************************
New this year is the MSWIT Holiday Market Place!! We have room for up to 12 MSWIT member vendors at no charge to exhibit and sell their goods. We know that some of our MSWIT members have a little side hustle of items they sell. If you are interested in being one of a maximum of 12 vendors interested in marketing items to our members who still need Christmas gifts or stocking stuffers, you must let Bobbi Mannino know right away as we believe these 12 half tables will go quickly!
***************************
Additionally, attendees are asked to bring non-perishable food items for the Kenner Food Bank and/or an unwrapped toy to be distributed by the New Orleans Mission.
COST: $45/Members + $50/Guests (PRE-PAYMENT REQUIRED)
