The Jacksonville Historical Society is proud to present the Gingerbread Extravaganza!

Come enjoy gigantic, creative gingerbread houses built by chefs, bakers, architects, engineers, culinary school students, families, young people and other individuals. These tasty creations will be on display at the Jacksonville Historical Society headquarters, historic Old St. Andrews, immediately across the street from the Veteran’s Memorial Arena.

The Gingerbread Extravaganza, in its ninth year, showcases some of the most creative art exhibited during the year in Jacksonville. Gingerbread and confection creations from traditional houses to animals and fairy tale themes offer holiday magic. Hundreds of hours are required for the construction of these edible structures – amazing sights to behold!

Children will love to play the scavenger hunt and find items throughout the display.

This charity event will benefit the children's programs of the Jacksonville Historical Society.
