Christmas Connection returns to the Model City
Christmas Connection – a Kingsport tradition for more than four decades – returns to the MeadowView Conference Resort and Convention Center later this month, showcasing the best arts and crafts vendors our region has to offer.
The free two-day event will be held in the main convention hall (1901 Meadowview Parkway) on November 14 from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. and on November 15 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Christmas Connection is sponsored by Kingsport Cultural Arts.
“We’re excited to be able to continue this beloved tradition, now in its 46th year, serving the artisans and crafters in our community,” said Kristie Leonard, special events and cultural arts manager for the city. “The sights, sounds and smells of Christmas will surround you as you search for that unique, one-of-a-kind gift for the upcoming holiday season.”
Christmas Connection – now in its 46th year – offers a variety of unique gifts just in time for the holiday season. Some of the items available include country crafts, home décor, fine wood and leather crafts, handmade soaps and lotions, jewelry, ornaments, stained glass, wheel-thrown pottery, baked goods, pet accessories and much more.
In addition to a fine selection of arts and crafts, visitors can partake in the Connection Café, where you can enjoy a variety of country favorites.
