    For generations, holiday shopping in Muncie was more than a seasonal task—it was an experience filled with tradition, excitement, and community spirit. Downtown once sparkled with festive lights, and families crowded the sidewalks to admire elaborate window displays at Ball Stores and other local retail establishments. This program explores the history and experiences of holiday shopping in the “Magic City” through the combined resources of the Ball State University Libraries, Delaware County Historical Society, and the Muncie Public Library.

    Presenters:
    Melissa Gentry, Supervisor, Map Collection, Ball State University Libraries
    Cody Sprunger, Archivist for Architectural and Design Records, Ball State Estopinal College of Architecture and Planning
