We are excited for the 2021 Holiday Art Sale happening again at the Marquette Regional History Center. 2019 was a record year with over 1,000 shoppers and given last year’s hiatus, we anticipate a great year for 2021. We are looking forward to hosting area artists. The History Center is a destination, providing holiday shoppers a beautiful space to shop the juried artist’s sale, visit world class exhibits, an old-fashioned bake sale, MRHC membership drive and other surprises, too. Booth rental fees and the small $2 admission will support the MRHC, a private non-profit 501c3 organization. Thank you for your interest in participating in the Sale!
