CHPT events are open to the public and all are welcomed to attend.

UPCOMING EVENTS

Santa Claus Museum Giving Tuesday Campaign

CHPT is excited to announce it is expanding the Santa Claus Museum in order to add new collections and upgrade the existing building. Renovations are underway to make room for new Santa collections, the first being from the private collection of Kay Potter. To liven the exterior of the museum, a mural by Doreen Vail will also be added. Bigger and better things are heading our way in 2023!

In order to finance the expansion, we are hosting a Giving Tuesday Campaign, which will run through the end of 2022. All support received from the Giving Tuesday Campaign will be used to fund the Santa Claus Museum expansion. Click here to support the Santa Claus Museum.
