Exhibit—'They Went Out from Us': Zwingli and the Radical Reformation

Mennonite Life joins a global faith community in commemorating the 500th anniversary of Anabaptism in 2025, and offers a limited-time exhibit titled 'They Went Out from Us': Zwingli and the Radical Reformation. The exhibit will be on display in the Mennonite Life Library Tuesday, May 6 through Friday, June 6. Curated by Mennonite Life Archivist & Librarian Julia Wiker, the exhibit features three 16th-century imprints of Swiss reformer Ulrich Zwingli's writing from Mennonite Life's rare book collection. These artifacts illuminate Zwingli's encounters with the budding Anabaptist movement, including his relationships with Conrad Grebel and Christoph Froschauer.

Join us for a celebration of the Biblical Tabernacle Experience's 50th anniversary on Saturday, May 10, 9:30 a.m.–4:00 p.m., at the Mennonite Life Visitors Center. The Community Celebration will feature $5 walk-in showings of the Biblical Tabernacle Experience, a kids' scavenger hunt, a historical timeline telling the story of the tabernacle, and new merchandise. A sandwich and pretzel truck will be on site for the event. Find more details at mennonitelife.org/events.
