Maker Month is a month-long celebration of local makers from November 15th to December 13th. The month culminates in the Heurich House Museum’s 12th annual Christmas Markt, which, for the first time, is happening for an entire week.
Maker Month & Christmas Markt are the museum’s largest annual fundraiser, and they provide a year’s worth of support to our Urban Manufacturing Incubator program. The Museum’s Incubator program builds upon the 130 year legacy of craftspeople and makers at the Heurich House - those who designed, built, and decorated the historic home, and those who the museum has helped over the last decade.
