On Thursday, Dec. 3, the City of Winter Park and The Charles Hosmer Morse Museum of American Art present the 37th Annual Christmas in the Park in downtown Winter Park.<\/p>\n
The free outdoor event begins at 6:15 p.m. when the lights are turned up on nine century-old Tiffany leaded-glass windows and Central Park is transformed into a luminous concert hall for the esteemed 160-voice Bach Festival Society Choir.<\/p>\n
Hugh and Jeannette McKean, who together built the Morse Museum\u2019s collection, began Christmas in the Park in 1979 to share a part of their rare Tiffany collection with the public in an informal setting.<\/p>\n
Eight of the windows featured at Christmas in the Park are memorials with religious themes designed by Louis Comfort Tiffany\u2019s firm for installation in the chapel at the Association for the Relief of Respectable, Aged, Indigent Females (1814\u20131974) in New York City. Tiffany Studios\u2019 Christmas Eve<\/em> window, c. 1902, will also be on view at the event and in the Morse Museum following Christmas in the Park. The window\u2014in which a figure resembling Father Christmas holds the Christ child\u2014was designed by Thomas Nast Jr., son of the famous political cartoonist, for his sister\u2019s home in New Rochelle, New York.<\/p>\nThursday, December 3rd 2015<\/strong><\/span> at 6:15 PM<\/p>\nto Thursday, December 3rd 2015 at 8:00 PM<\/p>\n
