Glazer Children's Museum Gingerbread Village

Celebrate the holidays at GCM with a gingerbread-inspired winter wonderland! In Gingerbread Village, you and the family can build gingerbread houses made out of recycled materials like cardboard, pipe cleaners, bottle caps, and more. Add your sweet construction to our village that grows day-by-day or take it home with you. Gingerbread Village is always included in museum admission. Step into Gingerbread Village in our MakeSpace exhibit, where creativity, collaboration, and winter wonders come to life. In Gingerbread Village, you can tinker away at creating imaginative gingerbread-inspired houses and structures to add to our growing village. Work together as a family to design and build miniature creations using recyclable materials like cardboard, pipe cleaners, bottle caps, and more everyday items. Gingerbread Village will continue to grow and expand over the holiday season, just like our community, with help from you! Will you build a cottage, a library, a towering skyscraper, or a playground? That’s for you to decide!
