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 is complimentary and will be on display in the Mennonite Life Library 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. 


Registration is open!
