Meet Santa Clarence
I am a Real Bearded Santa of African descent. I believe the merriment of Christmas is year around. My Santa story began when I volunteered to dress up as Santa for a Toys For Tots event in my community. I could see the need to bring joy to the children of families receiving these toys and to provide a small gift of my own. It was important to bring some hope and to celebrate the true spirit of Christmas.
I never knew what it truly meant to be Santa Claus. But after that event, I was hooked. I made a decision that day to begin finding out how to become an authentic Santa. Being Santa Claus is the best gift I have ever received!
I am happily married to the beautiful Mrs. Claus. We have two daughters, one granddaughter and a fur baby named Tip. We are members of Shiloh Missionary Church of St. Paul.
I keep “up to date” in my Santa persona by attending professional workshops. My professional affiliations are: the North Star Santas and the International Brotherhood of Real Bearded Santas.
Currently, Mrs. Claus and I host two annual community events, a Thanksgiving Basket Giveaway, providing a turkey and side items to 100 families. As well as our annual Toys For Tots events in conjunction with the Shriners.

“We had such an amazing experience with Santa Clarence (and Mrs. Claus) at the Hewing XChange!! Santa Clarence is the most genuine Santa we have ever had and I've ever met. He was warm, wonderful and simply perfect with everyone...children, adults and furry family members! He honestly cares about creating the most authentic and magical experience and it shows. He's so incredible, we already booked him for next year! Thank you, Santa Clarence and Mrs. Claus!!
