Racine & Me: The Inclusive Bean/Belle City Square Holiday Market

RACINE, WI (CBS 58) -- The Inclusive Bean is gearing up for its annual Holiday Market, and this year’s event is bigger and more magical than ever. Across the entire campus of Belle City Square in Racine , more than 80 local vendors will fill the space with handmade gifts, holiday treats, artwork, and unique finds that highlight the incredible creativity in our community.

Families can look forward to a variety of festive experiences. Guests can stop by for free photos with Santa, snap a picture on your phone, and the first 100 visitors will even receive a complimentary mini polaroid keepsake. Children will love the free cookie-decorating station, provided for the first 100 kids thanks to our friends at Icing Queens. There’s something for everyone: delicious offerings from Lee’s Deli, live performances from the Senior Moments Performance Group, and of course, festive holiday drinks brewed with love at The Inclusive Bean. And this is just the beginning, there are even more surprises planned as we get closer to the event.

The Holiday Market isn’t just a shopping experience; it’s a celebration of community and inclusion. As a nonprofit coffee shop, The Inclusive Bean is dedicated to creating meaningful employment opportunities for individuals of all abilities. Every visit to the market directly supports that mission and the people who make our space so special.

We invite the entire community to come out, enjoy the holiday spirit, discover local makers, and join us in supporting inclusion this season.
