PARKING:
Vetro’s parking lot becomes a Winter Wonderland during the month of December due to Grapevine’s “North Pole Express”. If you wish to “Help Make Your Own Ornament” or just browse through the Fine Art Glass Gallery for that “One-of-a-Kind Handblown Gift”, feel free to park behind the Studio on Hudgins Street, or just across Main Street.
On the weekends during the North Pole Express, a shuttle service will also be available. Once in Grapevine follow the signs to parking areas. Free shuttles run continuously from the free parking at the Grapevine Convention Center to the North Pole Express.
