What is Hollydays? The Junior League of Louisville’s Hollydays Art and Gift Market hosts over 60 unique vendors from across the country and is held at the Mellwood Arts and Entertainment Center. Hollydays features upscale gift items, including art and photography, home decor, jewelry, gourmet food, children's clothing, women's accessories and much more. This year will be the fourth year for the event.
Where does the money go? All proceeds from the event will go directly back to support the Junior League’s extensive list of community projects right here in Louisville. Over 500 local members contribute more than 5,000 volunteer hours to community projects each year. During the past decade, Junior League of Louisville has given nearly $1 million to 30 community projects.
When can I shop? The very first opportunity to shop Hollydays will be Friday, December 4 from 6pm until 10pm. Hollydays will also be open Saturday, December 5 from 10am until 6pm and Sunday, December 6 from 11am until 5pm.
How can I be a vendor? Vendor applications and a fact sheet can be found on the Junior League of Louisville website at www.juniorleaguelousiville.org. You may also email jllhollydays@yahoo.com to obtain additional information.
How many shoppers attended your event last year? Last year we had several thousand shoppers attend our show. As a fairly new event, we have grown the number of attendees to our show year after year as we are becoming known across the community as one of the premiere holiday shows in the area. This year will have an aggressive marketing plan, along with the addition of some new special events, to bring even more individuals to Hollydays.
Special Events to note - Doughnuts with Santa on Saturday morning and brand new Consignment Boutique to take place on Saturday.
