Thunderbird Artists is renowned for their award-winning Fine Art &\; Wine Festivals. \; For the 2012 Holiday Season\, they are teaming up with the Scottsdale Chamber of Commerce and Scottsdale Waterfront District \;to proudly present the Emporium of Scottsdale.
Think of the things that evoke loving memories of the holiday season\; the smell of cinnamon\, the warm glow of Christmas tree lights\, the taste of freshly baked cookies\, the sound of Christmas carolers and chestnuts roasting on an open fire. We are bringing the magic that is found in a traditional European Christmas Market to \;Scottsdale.
\;
Set on the banks of Scottsdale Waterfront\, our Emporium will provide visitors with unique merchandise for sale that departs from the commercialism and returns to the quality\, handmade fine arts and crafts of yore.
\;
\;
The Emporium will be celebrating the beginning of Holiday Season by bringing the finest of the arts and crafts world. The streets will come alive with something for everyone from stocking stuffers\, wood carvings\, candles\, glassware\, hand knitted hats and scarves\, local boutiques\, chestnut roasting\, home\, micro brewers\, fine wines\, chocolates\, old fashioned fudge\, Dickensian Carol Singers\, Christmas elves\, Christmas lit booths\, oils\, gift baskets\, fresh baked goods\, fresh flowers\, fine crafts\, baked apples\, mulled wine\, fine wines\, marzipan and European Christmas sweets &\; treats.
\;
Give yourself a gift this season: take a break from the hustle and bustle of holiday shopping and visit the Emporium of Scottsdale for an old-fashioned example of holiday cheer that you and your family will remember for years! We hope to see you there!
