Mennonite Life joins our global faith community in celebrating the 500th anniversary of Anabaptism with a limited-time exhibit titled ‘They Went Out from Us’: Zwingli and the Radical Reformation.

Featuring three sixteenth-century imprints of Swiss reformer Ulrich Zwingli’s writing from Mennonite Life’s rare book collection, the exhibit offers a view into Zwingli’s encounters with the budding Anabaptist movement, including his relationships with Conrad Grebel and Christoph Froschauer. The exhibit, curated by Archivist and Librarian Julia Wiker, will be on display in the Mennonite Life Library from May 6 through June 6, 2025.

An online version of the exhibit will also be available.
