A Free Town-Wide Celebration of Small Scenes with Big Imagination in Every Storefront
From Thanksgiving to New Years
Stroll through Brattleboro this holiday season and be transported to a miniature magical world. Over 50 Storefronts will showcase darling dollhouses, tiny terrariums, whimsical scenes, and steaming model trains.
Local businesses, nonprofits, and arts organizations are invited to join us — fill your window with the miniature scene of your dreams, partner with local artists to make magic, showcase your holiday merchandise with a miniature spin. Grants are available for every level of participation.
At the Heart of it All: A Magnificent Dollhouse
In the Mitchell Giddings Fine Arts Window…
Visit the refurbished 3-foot-tall Victorian showstopper, soon to be filled with 100+ handcrafted works from local artisans:
- teensy pottery
- teenier paintings
- the teeniest, hand-blown glass you’ve ever seen
- woven rugs, stitched quilts, miniature baskets and furniture—all lovingly local
This one-of-a-kind dollhouse will be auctioned off, with proceeds benefiting the Downtown Brattleboro Alliance (DBA – the elves behind all the downtown sparkle).
