#GingerbreadMadness 2024 is also a CONTEST!  

This year, you can win bragging rights and a prize for the best gingerbread house. Prizes will be awarded for the best child/family entry, tween/teen (13 to 18 years), and adult (19+ years) entry. We'll have a special prize category for anyone ambitous enough to reproduce a downtown Ravenna landmark in gingerbread (gingerbread flagpole, anyone?).

All of our free kits are spoken for but you may buy/bake/make your own house to enter. How you decorate your creation is entirely up to your imagination! Sign up for our blog posts and follow us on Facebook and Instagram to get updates.  

All decorated houses should be returned to the library between November 15th and 22nd. 

All the houses will be grouped into villages and displayed at the library.  Voting begins at Midnight Madness on November 29th and continues through December 6th. Winners announced December 7th. 

Follow our Pinterest board to get inspiration and plan for your gingerbread creation.
