From Brighton to the North End, these Gingerbread Neighborhoods are s'more than just houses

This year’s theme Boston Neighborhoods: Holiday in the Hub asked participants to showcase what they love about living and working in this region that we call home. From donations to social media engagement, there was an outpouring of excitement and support for this beloved event during the Exhibition’s voting period, which ended last week at the Reception (Wed 12/11). In total, nearly $700 in votes were raised and the projects earned over one-thousand individual interactions on Instagram!

Now officially announcing the winners of this year’s Gingerbread Competition:

The Golden Whisk

Awarded to the Gingerbread that raises the most money through donation-based voting, this is the sweetest award! This year it goes to Leonardi Aray Architects for their piece, “A Corner of Boston’s Mall of America”!

The Silver Spatula

Awarded to the creation that receives the highest number of individual votes through donations, this is a worthy accomplishment! This year's winner is Viviana Bonilla for her piece, “Boston in a Bite: Connecting the Suburbs to the Heart of the City”!

People's Choice Award

For the most engagements with their post on Instagram, the People’s Choice Award goes to Thornton Tomasetti for their piece, “Cannoli Be One Winner”!

Thank you to all of our gingerbread designers and supporters!
