Additional Information

The Junior League of Columbia’s Holiday Market began in November of 1986 with over 5,000 shoppers and just 36 merchants as a way to raise support for the Junior League of Columbia’s signature project, Healthy Children.  

This year the Holiday Market is celebrating its 28th year and has grown to one of Columbia’s premier shopping events and largest fundraisers with over 90 merchants traveling from all over the United States. The Holiday Market, along with our other fundraising events, Clean Sweep and Touch A Truck,  make it possible for the Junior League of Columbia to support and promote our many diversified projects, such as our school readiness program, Kids in the Kitchen, and Refugee Outreach.  Throughout the past 27 years, the Holiday Market alone has raised over $2 million for our local community. 

The 2013 Holiday Market is co-chaired by Claudia Baker and Misty Burton, and they have a committee of over 70 active Junior League Members to pull the fundrasier together year-round.  The Market will kick off Wednesday, December 4 with a Preview Party for those who want to get all dressed up and dance.  Other special events in addition to the general market occur on Thursday, December 5 with Ladies Night Out offering a fun laid back shopping experience for your favorite gal pals. Come by yourself, or bring a huge group for an outing.  Remember to buy your tickets ahead of time, as last year was a sold out event! This is a pre-sold event and no tickets will be sold at the door.  On Friday, December 6, enjoy a little family time as the market stays open late and children are entertained with games, crafts, storytelling, and visits with very special guests during PJs with Santa! 

See you at the Market!
