      Word from the North Pole confirms that Santa has officially designated our market as his favorite pre-Christmas warm-up spot! Between perfecting his list-checking technique and supervising the elves' gift-wrapping finals, the jolly fellow insists on squeezing in a visit. Come share your wish list, snap a magical moment, and discover why Santa calls our festival his "home away from the North Pole"!
