2008: ‘Twas The Night Before Christmas Christmas is our time of year and the best way to experience Vaillancourt is during the Holidays. Stepping into our decorated gallery, studio and museum is taking a step into the nostalgia of the holidays in all of their splendor. This year’s theme, ‘Twas The Night Before Christmas, starts with the grand illumination of the storefront’s window display and ends in the middle of the gallery where the stockings are hung by the chimney with care. Vaillancourt Folk Art is the perfect place to enjoy your Christmas shopping and give a gift that may start a tradition in your family, as it has for hundreds of families around the nation.
