YMCA of Greater Michiana announces the return of their Hometown Christmas Market Festival at the Niles-Buchanan YMCA (905 North Front Street,
Niles, MI) on Saturday, December 20, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
The event, which welcomed more than 200 families last year, will feature 40 local vendors in the gymnasium, along with free family activities including a festive photo booth with instant prints, a
frame-making station, cookie decorating, hot chocolate, and visits with Santa, Mrs. Claus, and The Grinch.
Guests can take in the sights and sounds of the season while browsing handmade goods, festive treats, and unique holiday gifts.
“Our Hometown Christmas Festival has quickly become a beloved community tradition, with local vendors, volunteers, and families all coming together to share in the spirit of the season,” said
Morissa Keultjes, Director of Marketing, YMCA of Greater Michiana. “It’s not just about shopping or photos with Santa. Events like this bring the Y’s mission to life—strengthening community through
connection.”
The event is free and open to the public. For more information, visit ymcagm.org/events or contact the Niles-Buchanan YMCA at (269) 683-1552.
