A Magical 2025 Christkindlmarkt --
​and We’re Already Looking Ahead to 2026

The Chester County Art Association’s 6th Annual Christkindlmarkt in 2025 was a truly magical celebration, transforming Gay Street in downtown West Chester into a festive winter wonderland. With over 80 local artists and vendors, thousands of visitors enjoyed handcrafted gifts, fine art, gourmet treats, twinkling lights, and joyful holiday music. The energy, community spirit, and support for local creatives made this year’s market one of our most memorable yet. We are incredibly grateful to our artists, partners, volunteers, and everyone who joined us to celebrate the season.
​
After such a successful 2025, we are already looking forward to an even more magical
Christkindlmarkt in 2026.
