As children’s author and illustrator Ashley Bryan once said, “Our greatest rewards in life come from our early years; they encourage us on.”  Mazza Enthusiasts invite you to join us as we encourage children to read and recognize original artwork by the most distinguished and honored illustrators of children’s books.
 
Our organization was founded in 1991 with the purpose of providing volunteer and financial support to the Mazza Museum and its director, 
Dr. Jerry Mallett.

By joining the Mazza Enthusiasts, you are helping the Mazza Museum continue to develop its programs. In particular, we:
• train docents to give school tours
• help plan/host visiting artist events
• purchase books that correspond to our art
• manage and staff the gift shop
• write and produce a semi-annual newsletter
• furnish a children’s library for the residences of Hope House and Open Arms
• finance the Mazza Medallion Award
• fund the Young Illustrators’ Conference
• preserve the Museum’s archival material
• produce the “Mazza Before Bedtime” TV show.

Please consider joining us in expanding awareness of art from children’s picture books.
