A White
(House) Christmas Presentation Next Week in Downtown Muncie
Staff from
the Ball State University Libraries Archives and Special Collections and GIS
Research and Map Collection (GRMC) will be presenting a workshop about the
history of decorating for Christmas at the White House. The presentation, A White (House) Christmas, will be on Tuesday, November 28 from
6:30 to 7:30 pm in the Colonnade Room at the Cornerstone Center for the Arts
(520 East Main Street).
The

historic preservation) of the White House using maps, plans, and
photographs. Attendees will learn about
the interesting decorating themes and the origins of the White House Christmas
trees. And Cody Sprunger, graduate

behind-the-scenes details from his experiences decorating at the White House in
2016.
