The Muckenthaler's annual Holiday Festival features various activities, including home and gallery tours, community performances, and an arts and crafts fair. The family-friendly event also provides free art workshops for kids, a children's play area, and a special appearance by Santa Claus.

Digital technology has had a two-fold effect on traditional forms of publishing. On the one hand the printed book may be on the way to becoming an antique form; on the other, typefaces have exploded in number and style with the advent of desktop printing. This exhibit examines the expanded definition of the book while also considering the meaning carried by specific typefaces in different media. Guest curators.

Celebrate the holdiay season with the Muckenthaler Center Circle and attend the 3rd annual benefit featuring wine, cheese, and chocolate tastings, artist decorated 'tablescapes' and more. Proceeds support the Muckenthaler Cultural Center's arts educational programs.
