The Maymont estate will host Make-Your-Own Wreath Workshops from December 3 through 7, and a larger Merry Market from noon to 5 p.m., December 7 and 8, on the carriage house lawn, featuring more than 75 talented local artisans.

The weekend also offers an opportunity to visit Saint Nicholas, take a ride on a holiday train in a festive setting with music, food, cozy fire pits and the Winter Wonder Bar, serving a variety of merry drinks.

Maymont’s historic buildings and gates will be draped in fresh ever-green wreaths and garlands, and an antique Christmas sleigh from the Carriage Collection will be dressed in its holiday finest.

Merry Market is $10 per person, $6 for children ages 3 to 16, and free for Maymont members and children ages 2 and under. Wreath Workshops are $60 per person, $45 for Maymont members, and
advance reservations are recommended at Maymont.org. Location: 1700 Hampton St., Richmond.
