About

The Mesa Christmas Market

​

Our Story

Starting in 2017, Mesa Christmas Market has operated as an initiative of Mesa Urban Renewal & Arts Lab (MURAL), a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. In alignment with MURAL’s mission to revitalize and activate downtown Mesa, the market has grown into an integral part of the city’s annual Christmas experience.

Community Impact

Through thoughtful programming and strong community partnerships, the Mesa Christmas Market has helped shape a festive and welcoming downtown atmosphere each holiday season. Our partnership with Merry Main Street has played a key role in the market’s growth, allowing us to expand our reach and enhance the experience for vendors, performers, and visitors alike.

Leadership

The Mesa Christmas Market is proudly directed by Amy Church, whose vision and dedication were instrumental in launching both the Mesa Christmas Market and the Mesa Santa Express. As a founding leader within Mesa Urban Renewal & Arts Lab (MURAL), Church continues to guide these signature community events, ensuring they remain meaningful, inclusive, and rooted in downtown Mesa.
