The holiday season is upon us, which means it’s time to kick your shopping into gear. Luckily, the Armadillo Christmas Bazaar returns for its 40th year from Dec.15 through 24 with handmade goods from nearly 200 artisans. The featured products come in a range of prices to meet just about anyone's budget. Choose from items like small Secret Santa-appropriate gifts to more meaningful presents for loved ones. Expect candles, pottery, jewelry, paintings, sculptures, woodwork, leather goods and more.
In addition to shopping, a number of local musicians will set the tone with live tunes throughout the bazaar. Shoppers can stop for drinks at an on-site bar selling cocktails, beer, and wine. Food from Southside Flying Pizza will be available as well.
The market is open from from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. and it's only one mile from Lamar Union. Admission is $8 for adults and free for those under the age of 12. Don't miss this one!
