Music and More at "The Muck"

Season 1, Episode 1387,   May 07, 2019, 10:43 PM

Pleased to have Farrell Hirsch, the Chief Executive Officer of Fullerton's beloved Muckenthaler Cultural Museum (affectionately known as "The Muck") in to discuss all that's going on in at one of Orange County's overlooked treasures. Commissioned at an original cost of $35,000, the Muckenthaler home was built by Walter and Adella Muckenthaler in 1924 atop a hill in Fullerton. The 18-room, 8.5-acres mansion was donated to the city in 1965 by Harold Muckenthaler, who wished to see his childhood home used as a cultural center for the public.  Known as popular site for weddings and parties, not everyone knows about it's many arts programs and exhibits as well. Nor the many music concerts held in its outdoor amphitheater, like the upcoming performance by legendary band leader Doc Severinsen on May 9. And the six Thursday night concerts that make up their annual JAZZ FESTIVAL May 16-June 20th.  So quit "mucking around" and make your way to www.TheMuck.org to learn more. And check out their 25th annual Motor Car Festival as well May 18 and 19th. For whether it's "cool" or "hot", it's probably happening at Fullerton's Muckenthaller Cultural Museum...
