2016 Santa's North Pole Village Craft Sale

This seasonal event has been an Ankeny tradition for 35 years and draws over 6,000 excited shoppers and vendors from several states!

This year's Santa’s North Pole Village is taking place on Saturday, November 5, 2016. With over 5,000 visitors expected, this Ankeny Art Center fundraiser is one of Iowa’s largest craft shows. That many visitors call for multiple locations and we offer a shuttle service between the event locations at Northview Middle School, Parkview Middle School and Prairie Ridge Middle School.

Our craft sale features hand-crafted items by master craftsmen and artists such as jewelry, furniture, soaps, paintings, ceramics, textiles, wood work, candles, glass work, holiday decor and much, much more! Local non-profit organizations and vendors offer food, baked goods and drinks for sale in the cafeterias at each school. The admission is $5 and the shuttle service is only $1.
