A holiday shopping event billed as the Marietta Hometown Christmas Arts and Crafts Show filled the Washington County Fairgrounds on Saturday, Oct. 17, 2026, with Vincent's Promotions as host.
Organizers counted more than 100 booths across the fairgrounds floor. Local artisans and vendors offered handmade gifts, crafts, food and treats, along with decorations for the season, according to WTAP's account of the show.
The doors were open from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. at the Marietta site.
Organizers told WTAP that the yearly gathering attracts people who want to get a jump on their gift lists or who are simply looking for a bit of holiday cheer.
WTAP also noted in an editor's note that video from the event would be posted once it aired, and asked readers to return for the updated clip.
The report did not include attendance totals, vendor names or a fundraising purpose for the show.
