In addition to its permanent second-floor exhibit, guests are invited to view the special exhibit on the first floor entitled “With a Heart Devoted to the Service......the Extraordinary Life of the Missionary and Musician John Antes.” Festival-goers can relax at the canopied outdoor café, with food being sold by local service clubs and non-profit groups in Nazareth.
