Plano Parks and Recreation’s 40^th annual Plano Christmas Market at Carpenter Park Recreation Center boasts 80-plus North Texas vendors under one roof. This fun and FREE event showcases handmade holiday gift items as well as jewelry, clothing, candles and soaps (and don’t forget the wide array of salsas, jams, nuts and dips for your holiday parties!). While the Christmas Market is a way for these local artisans to show off their talents, it is also a great way to support local businesses.
