We, would like to introduce ourselves, and also our beloved project THE CHRISTMAS FACTORY.
Our Elf-team Consists of a group of families who call the Mat-su valley home, along with local actors and actresses.
We had big dreams to put together the vision from what we always pictured Santa’s Workshop to be.
Our family came to Alaska in 2017 after being “professional elves” for 10+ years working with major productions in the lower 48. We wanted to create something new, something magical, something unique for the people of this amazing state.
The Factory has a unique charm because it has been handcrafted from the littlest details to insure an authentic feeling. If it looks homemade than it was made by us. Our goal is to create a magical community event here in Palmer, at the Alaska State Fairgrounds during the dark hours of winter.
Our hope is that this event will be a beginning of something spectacular, something which will create memories for all generations.
This experience was designed to be way more than just a quick program for kids. It is an interactive theatrical experience for the entire family. This event will bring family and friends closer to each other, and also to the true spirit of Christmas.
For us, it is about building a community, and very much about living our passion and purpose. We would like to help children in the Mat-su Valley who struggle, suffer, or are in need of something magical.
May your days be Merry & Bright
With love,
The Garvin Family
Jarin, Madilyn, and Logan are the biggest fans of this project. These are the children who truly spark the imagination behind each element of the performance. For their entire lives they have watched their parents build and have been there side by side as we paint, sew, and create.
They have held the tape measure and chalk lines hundreds of times. They have swept up the saw dust and glitter trails. Without them this absolutely wouldn’t be possible.
Jarin designed, created and operates our magical “toy machine.” He also oversees our outdoor light display and keeps it working beautifully.
Madilyn is the “baker” who organizes and oversees the baking of the amazing snickerdoodle cookies.
Logan works hard to make sure our elves are happy and keeps us smiling when the days seem long.
Lynn loves all things Christmas and this shows through her enthusiasm for The Christmas Factory. Lynn has MAJOR organization skills and she keeps all of us in order. She keeps all things running smoothly behind the scenes so that you can enjoy every minute of your time with us.
Logan works hard to make sure our elves are happy and keeps us smiling when the days seem long.
