Nutcracker Market To Welcome Mr. Christopher Radko

Revered Ornament Artist to Celebrate New Brand and Visit with Holiday Shoppers

As if it were possible to add even more holiday spirit or festive flare to Houston Ballet Nutcracker Market, the Market is pleased to announce that artist Mr. Christopher Radko will be on hand at this year’s event to greet shoppers and share his new brand of ornaments, “HeARTfully Yours.”

Well known for his distinctive style of brightly colored, glass-blown ornaments which encompass hundreds of themes and adorn Christmas trees all over the world, this new line marks Mr. Radko’s exciting return to ornament design following a fifteen-year hiatus. Handcrafted in Europe, a portion of the proceeds from the collection go to such causes as heart disease, breast cancer, AIDS research, food insecurity, and relief for Ukraine.

Mr. Radko will make his appearance at booth 104 – Yule Love It! – which will feature a sparkling selection of ornaments from the new line for purchase.
