Holiday House – Traditions

Every November Rome Art and Community Center transforms the architectural masterpiece that is the Carpenter House into the beloved tradition, Holiday House. Adorned with decorations, trees, lights, and a little holiday magic the majestic Tudor mansion will become the scene for “A Carpenter Christmas”. This event is one of The Center’s largest fundraisers of the year. It allows them to provide numerous community activities including FREE summer concerts, music, stories, and art for kids, dinner concerts, summer camp, Montessori style pre-k and so much more community enrichment. Once the stage is set over 40 vendors move their products into the house for a two weekend long shopping extravaganza that supports not only The Art Center but numerous local businesses.
