Gingerbread House Festival Opens at Wood Memorial Library

From a submitted release

The annual Gingerbread House Festival, with row after row of beautifully decorated gingerbread creations has returned to the Wood Memorial Library and Museum. The festival, which runs from Nov. 29 to Dec. 15, is free and open to the public. 

Regional artisans and bakers, both experienced and novice alike, show off their creative talents with a spectacular array of candy covered houses, trains, trees and in some cases entire villages and farms. The show is one of the largest gingerbread displays in all of New England. 

The display is upstairs in the library as is a “Gingerbread Shop" offering the chance to take home some of the magic with holiday themed gifts and treats.

Wood Memorial Library & Museum is located at 783 Main St., South Windsor. Hours are Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., weekends from 10 a.m. - 6 p.m. The library will close at 2 p.m. on Dec. 15. For more information call 860-289-1783, email wood.memorial.lib@sbcglobal.net, or visit www.woodmemoriallibrary.org.
