Got a sweet tooth? To coincide with their upcoming production of the 2025 Holly Jolly Follies, entitled “Meant To Be,” C.R.O.W. will once again offer a gingerbread home decorating contest with prizes! This opportunity is open to the public and all ages are encouraged to participate.
The entry fee is $25 per person/family/business with all proceeds supporting C.R.O.W.’s annual non-profit youth arts programming. Scholarships are available for those with financial need. Each gingerbread home will have a 14” x 18” maximum space allotment, and the designer’s name or business will be displayed next to their home.
The gingerbread homes on display bring joy to everyone who attends the Holly Jolly Follies, Empty Bowls, FRAA’s Holiday Arts Faire, and several other seasonal events at the Florence Events Center. First place will receive a trophy plus $100 cash prize. 2nd and 3rd place will receive free tickets to upcoming CROW events plus other surprises.
Who decides? The gingerbread homes are judged by the public. Voting tickets can be purchased for $1 each or 6 for $5, and voters can put all of their tickets into their favorite homes’ box, or spread them out amongst several favorites. Tickets will be available for purchase at the FEC box office during business hours, or at the lobby boutique during the Holly Jolly Follies performances.
Wanna Participate? Entry forms are required and can be completed online at www.crowkids.com/gingerbread.
The entry deadline is November 10th, homes must be dropped off to the FEC on November 20-25th, and they will be on display for voting December 1st - 15th. At the end of the contest, designers may retrieve their gingerbread home for personal display.
Entry space is limited. Questions may be emailed to:
