The Morse Museum to light up Winter Park  and Celebrate Christmas in the Park

On Thursday, December 4, 2026,The Charles Hosmer Morse Museumof American Art and the City of Winter Park will present the 47th Annual Christmas in the Park in downtown Winter Park.


The event is held in the northern section of Central Park—about a block from the Museum—near the intersection of Garfield and Park avenues.


The beloved free outdoor event begins at 6:15 pm when century-old Tiffany leaded-glass windows are lighted. The six leaded-glass windows on view are memorials, with religious themes, produced by Tiffany Studios for the chapel at the Association for the Relief of Respectable Aged Indigent Females in New York City (1814–1974).


Central Park is then transformed into a luminous concert hall for the Bach Festival Society Choir, Youth Choir, and Brass Ensemble. The choral performance concludes at about 8 pm., and the windows remain lighted for viewing until 8:30 pm.



Each year, the Morse Museum helps launch the holiday season in Winter Park when it lights up Tiffany windows in Central Park and presents the Bach Festival Choir and Brass Ensemble in concert.


This December is the 47th annual celebration of Christmas in the Park. The much loved local holiday event was started by Hugh and Jeannette McKean, the Morse Museum’s benefactors, in 1979 as a way to share a part of their rare Tiffany collection with the public in an informal setting. Today, the Morse and the City of Winter Park co-sponsor the event.


Parking is available on the street, in the Museum’s parking lot, and in various City of Winter Park lots.
