The Juab Fine Arts Council's Christmas Festival has a tradition of kicking off the holiday season with Santa Clause himself! Our wonderful Nephi City Fire Department makes sure Santa arrives safely and always has plenty of treats for the kids. Countless volunteers also work many hours to bring joy to the children who attend the festival.
New to the festival this year is a gingerbread house contest. It is open to all ages and the entries must be 100% edible. Participants must drop off their entry at 10 am the morning of the festival at the Juab Fine Arts Auditorium in the county building. Prizes will be awarded at 2 pm.
The crafts are free to children and include Christmas tree ornaments, magnets, cookie decorating and Santa art. Also, for a small $2 fee, pictures with Santa are available or the children can receive a letter from Santa straight from the North Pole. Children may also bring their letters to Santa to place in the "magic" mailbox for free. The entire community is invited to join the tradition Saturday November 28th from 11am to 2 pm in the Juab County Auditorium.
