Grand Opening of the 37th Annual Gingerbread Gallery

You’re invited to join us at the grand opening of the 37th annual Gingerbread Gallery to benefit the Erie Canal Museum.

Kick off a festive holiday season with the 37th annual Gingerbread Gallery! Our Grand Opening coincides with the tree lighting in Clinton Square on Friday, November 25. We’ll be open from 10 AM – 8 PM with live music from Merry Mischief from 4 PM – 6 PM.

Admission to the Museum during the Gingerbread Gallery is $10 for adults, $7 for seniors (65+), $4 for children 3-17, and free for children 2 & under. Museum Members receive a Family Pass good for free admission for up to 6 people. Free parking is available in the lot across from the Museum, under routes 81 and 690.

The Gingerbread Gallery started in 1986 as a one-day gingerbread auction. Its popularity has increased over the years, and it is now a six-week-long exhibit featuring more than 30 works by individuals, families, groups and students. Everyone is invited to submit entries to the Gingerbread Gallery. If you are interested in becoming a Gingerbread Gallery baker, you can find the 2019 Rules & Entry Form here.

We look forward to seeing you at the grand opening of this fun holiday exhibit and yearly community tradition!
