A new exhibit at the Hallmark Visitors Center called “Hallmark Live” provides a behind-the-scenes look at the creativity and artistry that go into the making of Hallmark’s most popular products, including Keepsake Ornaments.

If you will be arriving in Kansas City a few days before the Keepsake Ornament Club event, be sure to stop by the Visitors Center between 1-2 p.m. to experience this unique place and visit with a different Keepsake Ornament artist each day. Although signing is not allowed, this is a great opportunity to meet the artists in a more intimate setting.

Here’s is the schedule of the Keepsake Ornament artists that will be featured during the week leading up to the event:

  • Mon., July 29 – Anita Marra Rogers
  • Tues., July 30 – Kris Gaughran and Tammy Haddix
  • Wed., July 31 – Don Palmiter
  • Thurs., August 1 – Sharon Visker and Joanne Eschrich
