A truly magical experience...Free and open to the public, the Steubenville Nutcracker Village™ is a gift to the people of the Ohio Valley, born out of a partnership between Nelson's of Steubenville and the Old Fort Steuben Project.
This annual event, located in the heart of Steubenville, centers around the city's newest claim to fame: the world's largest collection of lifesize nutcrackers, numbering 150-strong and still growing. |
Displayed throughout Fort Steuben Park and the Historic Business District, each 6-foot nutcracker is 100% made in Steubenville by Nelson's, crafted to brave the outdoor elements from late November through January each year.
With the nearby Market Street Bridge lit up in blue and gold, in full view of the great Ohio River, and with the setting sun painting the bedrock of the West Virginia hills in the distance, the Steubenville Nutcracker Village and Advent Market is a truly magical event that brings light and warmth to everyone it touches.

"Making Christmas Memories" by Dave Barnhouse Ornament
$5.00
This laser-cut ornament features "Making Christmas Memories," the painting from artist Dave Barnhouse commissioned to celebrate the beauty and wonder of the Steubenville Nutcracker Village.
About the Artist: Dave became a full-time artist after a long career as an electrician in a steel mill, where art was never far from his thoughts. As soon as he could hold a pencil, the artist started expressing his artistic talents. One of his first drawings was a threshing machine on his grandfather's farm in Ohio. "He drew all the little details," remembers his mother, who encouraged her son to pursue his art. Dave Barnhouse recreates the best of times in his definition of rural and small-town America. His paintings are snapshots of life the way he remembers it from the 1950's and 60's. Today he paints full time in his studio, which is part of the Ohio home that he shares with his wife, Marie.
