IMPORTANT UPDATE – IMPORTANT UPDATE – IMPORTANT UPDATE – IMPORTANT UPDATE

Dear Local Club Presidents,

Hello from the Keepsake Village! We’ve made some important date and artist shifts to our upcoming 50th anniversary celebrations. Our in-store artist events have been rescheduled to 7/22. As a reminder, Keepsake Ornament Club members will be able to attend the exclusive event the day before, on 7/21. Again, we’re so thrilled to be bringing these events back for our 50th anniversary!

Mark your calendars and be sure to save these new dates!

  • 50th Anniversary Celebrations in 10 cities across the country– July 22 (Saturday)
    • KOC-exclusive Artist Signing (the night before)– July 21 (Friday)

Thanks!!

The Keepsake Team

We look forward to celebrating with you at this new event.

This is not a traditional artist signing event as we’ve had in previous years, but a chance to celebrate the history of Keepsakes!  While we will have several unique 50th anniversary ornaments, this event does not feature an exclusive release ornament available at only selected locations.  All ornaments available during the event will be sold in all Gold Crown locations and on hallmark.com.
