Timeless Art - Family Tradition - Compelling Expierence

The Top Award-Winning Santa Experience

For over a decade, Magic Makers Studio has been compared to the works of Norman Rockwell for our ability to create timeless, custom art. Our Magic of Santa® Experience is a 45-minute traditional session where families take part in over 20 magical activities with Santa.

 

From reading stories, making magic, and flying the Magic Sled to saving Christmas, checking the Naughty and Nice List, praying, and enjoying cookies with Santa, each moment is designed to create unforgettable memories. The experience also includes games like Candy Land and more.

 

Each session results in international award-winning art, available in various forms including wall art, storybooks, Christmas cards, ornaments, and more. This year, we’re excited to introduce a new Children’s Book, inspired by the classic Golden Books, designed for little ones to enjoy in their own rooms while family albums remain protected for generations.

 

At Magic Makers Studio, we craft incredible, personalized memories your family will treasure for years to come.

We Love Our Families!
