The Venue @ The Lansing Mall
The Black Santa Experience will be Lansing's first immersive holiday experience that celebrates and amplifies diversity and inclusion.
We believe our children should see themselves everywhere and Santa is no exception.
Sip Happens is pleased to partner with Eleven 11 events, Sweet Encounter Bakery & Cafe, Cravings Gourmet Popcorn and Blk Lansing to host The Black Santa Experience on Saturday, November 26, 12-6 at The Venue, an event space located in the Lansing Mall . The Venue will be transformed into a winter wonderland to give families the opportunity to celebrate the holiday season in an environment created for us by us.
Santa will be on the main stage where children (and families) can sit for professional photographs. Photos are available for sale: Package A: one 4x6 for $12 or Package B: one 5x7, one 4x6 and two 2x3 for $27. After seeing Santa, children can write a letter to Santa, make a Christmas tree ornament to take or from 2p - 4p participate in a cupcake decorating workshop hosted by Sweet Encounter Bakery & Cafe.
On this Small Business Saturday, you'll want to visit the Black vendor marketplace featuring over 30 local Black-owned businesses. Hourly raffles will be held and 100% of the proceeds will go to answering the requests of the children. The first 100 attendees will receive a free swag bag. So throw on your ugly Christmas sweater and join us!
You won’t want to miss this holiday experience celebrating our culture, supporting Black-owned businesses and allowing our children to enjoy a Santa Claus who looks like them.
This is the first event of its kind in Lansing and surely not to be missed. To be a vendor, your business must be a minority owned business (51% racial or ethnic minority). We request that each vendor donate one item to be raffled off. 100% of the proceeds of the raffle will go toward fulfilling as many of the letters to Santa submitted by children attendees as possible.
Vendor Cost $75
Each vendor will be provided with one 8 - foot table, 2 chairs and 1 tablecloth.
A limited number of premium 10 foot vendor spaces are available for $150.
