Christmas will be here before we know it, and the Ark Encounter is ready with an impressive selection of handmade, one-of-a-kind gifts! When you join us for ChristmasTime at the Ark this year, don’t miss the opportunity to browse our 4,000-square-feet of dedicated fair trade retail in three different areas at the Ark Encounter.

After you take in our stunning new projection show on the side of the life-size Noah’s Ark, head into the West Village and the Ark Encounter gift shop to see what fair trade items are available. Learn more about where you can find these unique products below.

The Gift That Gives Back

Giving a handmade gift from our fair trade selections helps support impoverished people around the globe. If you see something that you think someone on your list might like, make sure to get it during your visit. Since these products are completely unique, they may not be available when you return.
