Welcome to a pop-up Christmas story to remember. Deeply experience the Christmas story with fresh eyes and ears, and an open heart, as we help others in need. This is an unique, live, outdoor Christmas Pageant on a family farm with evening vistas, live actors, music, hot chocolate and more.
Gates open at 4PM where you can begin your journey at a booth for hot chocolate, tea, coffee, beverages, cookies/desserts, a 3-Kings Photo booth, Christmas cards and art for sale.
Bring a flashlight. Wear warm clothes for cool weather & good shoes for walking on uneven ground. No pets allowed, except service animals.
As the sun sets, the show begins at 5PM. Go back in time; carry a small light; travel alongside Mary & Joseph; follow the Shepherds; be surrounded by an Angel Chorus; spot the Star of Bethlehem; spy the 3 Kings arrival, and rest by the manger, through a moving, interactive pageant, featuring live animals, actors, and music, on a small farm with peaceful, contemplative vistas.
The audience moves from scene to scene through the live show as one large group of travelers, surrounded with music and light in this one-of-a-kind sharing of the birth of Jesus.
The show will run about 1 hour and 20 min. Plan for cool weather in a winter wonderland! :)

Dec 14 Sunday
Visit the museum to experience forty years of printmaking with world-renowned artist Anish Kapoor!
Join us August 19, 2025 – March 14, 2026 for the exhibition, “Anish Kapoor: Dissolving Margins, from the Collections of Jordan D. Schnitzer and His Family Foundation”, a bold and extensive exhibition of Anish Kapoor’s four-decade-long printmaking practice. Kapoor is one of the most influential contemporary artists working today. Renowned for works on an architectural scale such as Cloud Gate (2004) in Chicago’s Millennium Park and Ark Nova (2013), the world’s first inflatable concert hall in Japan, his works both engage public space and envelop the viewer in an interiority. In parallel with his sculptural projects, Kapoor has maintained a career-long commitment to printmaking, which began in the 1970s and continues to this day. While Kapoor’s prints have been featured in group exhibitions, this project will mark the artist’s first solo survey dedicated to this collaborative and often technical practice.
Kapoor’s graphic oeuvre similarly evokes a sense of awe as we contemplate the hallucinatory qualities of heavily pigmented prints that appear to breathe, expand, and dissolve before visitors’ eyes. Elsewhere, especially in his earlier works, Kapoor explores organic and biological forms alongside overarching expressions of presence and absence.
