Plans are underway for our Mistletoe Market at the 99th Annual Christmas “Festival of Lights” in Natchitoches on Saturday, December 6, 2025.

The Women’s Resource Center hosts a craft area at this event each year as a fundraiser to assist our ministry in helping women in difficult life situations including unplanned pregnancies. This is a very important event for us!

We provide booth spaces in the downtown area on the parade route for the sale of arts and crafts, prepackaged food, and other items to the public crowd attending the festival.

If you would like to apply to be a craft vendor at this year’s event, please read the rules & regulations, then fill out the vendor information below.
