No Room in the Inn

“No Room in the Inn”
A display of Christmas Nativity Scenes at the Federated Church
For the benefit of Habitat for Humanity of Martha’s Vineyard

“There is no Room in the Inn” a display of Creches for the benefit of Habitat for Humanity of Martha’s Vineyard will be part of Christmas in Edgartown this December. For the fifth, the Federated Church Meetinghouse will be filled with over fifty cheches. These are miniature nativity scenes, which celebrate the birth of Jesus. Children are welcome and will go home with stickers of the nativity scene and a backdrop to color.

Because Bethlehem was full of travelers who had come to take part in the Roman census, there was no room in the inns for Joseph and Mary and their newborn child. Creches represent the stable where the family had to stay.

Many Island residents face the same problem that Mary and Joseph faced in Bethlehem. The Creche display seeks to raise funds for Habitat for Humanity of Martha’s Vineyard.
The Creches reflect the creativity of the artists who have made the individual scenes. They range in style from delicate creches made of fragile crystal and glass to the austere beauty of Haitian scenes crafted out of metal salvage from oil drums. There is a 60-year-old German creche fabricated out of cloth and glue which must be handled with care and others made out of wool and wood which a child can play with.

Habitat Director, Greg Orcutt, will be available to answer questions on both days. Elizabth Villarc, Church Historian, will also be available to answer questions about the Meetinghouse and the creches.

Friday December 12, 4:00PM- 6:00

Saturday, December 13, 11:00 AM-4:00PM

Sunday, December 14, 11:30-4:00PM

Holiday Storytime with Author Cathryn Newton

Join the festivities at The Harborside Inn after the parade for a holiday reading/signing of HOME SWEET ISLAND by children’s author Cathryn Newton. This promises to be a special Christmas in Edgartown Event presented by The Harborside Inn with Edgartown Books.

About the Book: When Linnea learns of an impending winter storm stranding a ship, she quickly devises a plan to bring the island together. Much to her surprise, her compassion evokes holiday magic! Inspired by a community of islanders from Menemsha who braved high-running tides and the winter elements to bring Christmas cheer to a vessel from Europe that was stranded over the holidays in the harbor, the story is a heartwarming tale of true islander spirit and kindness.
About the Author: Cathryn Newton has always found inspiration living by the sea and finding the beauty in nature and art. Living on Martha's Vineyard for many years, she was captivated by the stories from lighthouse keepers, ship captains, and salt of the earth islanders. Cathryn wanted to share the magic of the island through children's books. She now resides in Rhode Island and the Vineyard with her family.

"No Room in the Inn," a display of Creches to support Habitat for Humanity of MV

For the fourth year, The Federated Church Meetinghouse will be filled with over fifty creches in a display titled “There is no Room in the Inn” for the benefit of Habitat for Humanity of Martha’s Vineyard. These are miniature nativity scenes, which celebrate the birth of Jesus. Children are welcome and will go home with stickers of the nativity scene and a backdrop to color.
Because Bethlehem was full of travelers who had come to take part in the Roman census, there was no room in the inns for Joseph and Mary and their newborn child. Creches represent the stable where the family had to stay. The parents are sometimes joined by shepherds, magi or angels who came to see the newborn child.


The Creches reflect the creativity of the artists who have made the individual scenes. They range in style from delicate creches made of fragile crystal and glass to the austere beauty of Haitian scenes crafted out of metal salvage from oil drums. There is a 60-year-old German creche fabricated out of cloth and glue which must be handled with care and others made out of wool and wood which a child can play with. They come from all over the world including ones from Haiti, Mexico, Germany, and France. There are three creches which are no longer being made: a Willow Tree, a Beyer’s and a M. A. Hadley blue and white porcelain one.

The Creche Display will be open from Noon to 4:00 PM on Saturday, December 9 and from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM on Sunday, December 10th. Habitat Director, Greg Orcutt, will be available to answer questions on both days.

11:30 Cubist, Renaissance and Teddy Bear Creches

Join Church Historian Elizabeth Villard for a walk around the more than 50 creches on display and learn something of their origins and history.

1:00 Scavenger Hunt. 

Find the 10 objects hidden in the creches and win a creche ornament for your tree.

2:00 Join the Federated Church Carolers for half an hour of caroling.
