Vaillancourt Folk Art

Sutton, MA 01590

Vaillancourt Folk Art began in 1984 when Gary Vaillancourt gave his wife Judi a gift of three antique chocolate molds. She uses her molds to make hand painted collectible chalk ware figures for all major holidays, especially Christmas. Today, Vaillancourt Folk Art (VFA) is one of America's last remaining Christmas ornament and collectibles makers. Unlike most Christmas collectibles, which are manufactured overseas, Vaillancourt chalk ware figures are still made by hand at VFA studio in Sutton. Visitors can tour behind-the-scenes as artists hand-paint more than 300 different versions of Santa Claus and Father Christmas figures.
