A Gingerbread House Party

Thu, 12/14/2023 - 20:29

A gingerbread house contest sponsored by Project Most will wrap up with a free party and judging on Saturday from 2 to 4 p.m. at the Most Holy Trinity school building on Meadow Way. 

With prizes awarded for ages 5 to 12 and 13 to 18, and for adult and family creations, the houses should be something special. Participants have a chance to win a scooter from Khanh Sports and gift cards from Khanh’s, Hub Grub, the Clubhouse, A La Mode, and Lululemon, a movie theater gift basket, and Southampton Ice Rink passes. 

The judges will be Mary Schoenlein, who pioneered the gingerbread house competition when she ran her popular Amagansett food shop, Mary’s Marvelous, and Arlene Bujese, an art dealer and curator. Also at the party, there will be voting for the people’s choice awards. Hot cocoa and treats will be served, and there will be arts and crafts and a performance by Keith Leaf, the Amazing Fire Juggler.
