Gingerbread Village Event Is This Weekend at Exploration Place

Kick off the holiday season with Gingerbread Village, one of Wichita’s favorite traditions. The beloved event – a partnership between Exploration Place and the Assistance League of Wichita – will take place 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Nov. 4 and 5.

The cost is $12 for adults, $10 for seniors, $10 for children and $6 for Exploration Place members. Gingerbread Village tickets also include access to the Exploration Place exhibits for the day. Tickets are available for advanced purchase at www.exploration.org/gingerbread.

Guests will receive a gingerbread house kit. Each kit contains precut graham cracker pieces, icing and an array of candy for guests to use as they strategize, engineer, craft and build the ultimate sweet escape. This day is one that children will remember long after the last piece of candy has been plucked off of the rooftops of their gingerbread creations.

Special accommodations are available for groups seeking a private experience. Two rooms that can accommodate up 30 guests each are available for rental throughout the event. To reserve your private decorating room, call 316-660-0609.
