About this venue
Built in 1924, the stunning Italian Renaissance-style structure stands on nine landscaped acres overlooking a quiet residential neighborhood. In 1965, the estate was donated to the City of Fullerton for use as a cultural center for touring art exhibits. The sprawling venue is full of history and charm. Today, the site’s buildings – including elegant Spanish Colonial-style architecture– are used for educational and cultural events run by The Muckenthaler Cultural Center’s non-profit. In addition to its extraordinary setting, the two-story mansion offers exclusive catering and full bar services. In 1999, the Muckenthaler received designation by the National Register of Historic Places, that not only produces performances, gallery exhibits, festivals and special events. The Muckenthaler Cultural Center commits to the mission of providing the community with experiences that stimulate creativity and imagination while conserving the heritage of the Muckenthaler Estate.
