Grateful Brew is thrilled to bring back the 3rd annual holiday event, A Very Grateful Christmas! Join us Saturday, December 9th from 10am to 4pm to celebrate the season with neighbors and community members.

Photos with Santa for a good cause

We are excited to have a very special guest join us again this year: Santa Claus! A festive set will be displayed right here in the shop for you to enjoy with the whole family - that’s right, this photoshoot is open to children, adults, and dogs! A photographer will be onsite to snap your photo, and all participants will receive their professional photos via email.

In lieu of an event fee, all photoshoot participants will be asked to make a monetary donation to YouthBASE, a local nonprofit providing afterschool and summer educational intervention programs for at-risk children in K5 through 2nd grades in our community. Your gift will make a difference in the lives of young children and families in Greenville! For more information about their mission and outreach, please visit their website here.

Click on the button above to register for the photoshoot with Santa. Registration will ensure that your session takes place during the time slot you select on the form; although registration is not required since walk-ins are welcome, registered participants will be given priority to avoid a long waiting time.

Seasonal brews for the holidays

We’ll have a jolly lineup of seasonal coffee and beer to keep the day merry and bright, as well as delicious drinks for the kids! We're especially excited to feature some specialty kegs from our sponsor, Creature Comforts Brewing. Enjoy a tasty beverage while you wait to meet Santa, and hang out with the Brew Crew as we celebrate the holiday season with our community.

Arts and crafts for the kids

We’re excited to add a new feature to the event this year: arts and crafts for the kids! Once they’ve met Santa, they can visit our crafting station to decorate ornaments and make festive holiday decorations. We’ll provide all the supplies - they just need to bring their creativity!

Yummy eats from food vendors

Make your lunch plans here with us and Project Host! We'll have their food truck, the Host Mobile, parked outside from 11am to 1pm for a delicious meal; all proceeds go directly into their nonprofit programs, so come eat for a good cause. We'll also have sweets from Luna's Bake House to enjoy for dessert.

Raffle baskets for a cause

Thanks to some generous small businesses in the Greenville area, we're excited to raffle off four holiday gift baskets, as well as a paid trip to Athens to visit Creature Comforts Brewing! The raffle ends December 9th, and all proceeds are donated to YouthBASE. Click here to purchase your raffle tickets!
