Our Mission

The Barberton Christmas Walk is a cherished tradition that aims to strengthen the bonds of our community, celebrate the spirit of the season, and support local businesses and non-profits. Our mission is to create a memorable experience for families and individuals of all ages, fostering a sense of belonging and togetherness.

On the Saturday after Thanksgiving, we transform the heart of Barberton into a winter wonderland. Our streets come alive with festive decorations, twinkling lights, and the joyous sounds of holiday music. Local businesses open their doors to welcome visitors with warm hospitality, special promotions, and unique gifts. This event serves as a platform for these businesses to showcase their offerings and connect with the community on a deeper level.

Beyond the commercial aspects, the Barberton Christmas Walk is dedicated to giving back. We partner with various non-profit organizations to raise awareness and funds for their important causes. The event also provides a valuable opportunity to support the Barberton Food Bank, ensuring that families in need have access to essential food supplies during the holiday season.

The festivities extend beyond shopping and giving. Families can create lasting memories through a variety of fun activities, including:

Holiday Crafts and Workshops: Children and adults alike can unleash their creativity by participating in hands-on crafting sessions.   

Live Entertainment: Talented musicians and performers fill the air with holiday cheer, captivating audiences of all ages.

Santa Claus Visits: Children can share their Christmas wishes with the jolly old man himself, creating magical moments that will be cherished for years to come.

Food and Treats: Local vendors offer a delectable array of holiday treats, from warm beverages to festive desserts.

The Barberton Christmas Walk is more than just an event; it's a celebration of our community's values and traditions. By bringing people together, promoting local businesses, and supporting charitable causes, we strive to make a positive impact on the lives of our residents. We invite you to join us on this joyous occasion and experience the magic of the Barberton Christmas Walk.
