Muncie Arts and Culture District
It all started with glass. In the late 19th century the natural resources found near Muncie stimulated growth for the production
of glass. Ball Corporation, which held important patents for mass production of glass jars, had its headquarters and large
manufacturing operations here. Muncie’s rich glass heritage dots the Arts and Culture District and compliments the many arts
establishments. Historical buildings and homes still echo the Gas Boom Era of the early years. Our unique heritage is reflected
throughout the District, linked by the Muncie Arts and Culture Trail and the Indiana Glass Trail.
The Muncie Arts and Culture District encompasses four distinct quadrants with concentration of various arts and cultural
amenities, each offering a unique contribution to Muncie’s history of glass. Muncie can best be experienced by visiting each
area, chosen for its contribution of culture, history and artistic expression. Visitors are directed through the District by wayfinding signs placed along the Muncie Arts and Culture Trail which links the four areas and connects with the Cardinal Greenway
and White River Greenway.
* BALL STATE UNIVERSITY quandrant contains numerous cultural sites, including: Emens Auditorium, Muncie Symphony
Orchestra, Sursa Hall, the David Owsley Museum of Art, and Marilyn K. Glick Center for Glass.
* MINNETRISTA quandant takes its name from the original Frank. C. Ball home that once stood there. Now it applies to the
entire Minnetrista campus, including the Minnetrista Museum, Oakhurst Gardens, Orchard Shop and the E.B. and Bertha C.
Ball Center.
* DOWNTOWN MUNCIE quandant historic urban area, is home to numerous cultural
experiences including galleries, museums, performance spaces, historic houses and restaurants,

Maring Library, Vietnam Memorial, Civil War Monument, historic cabins and the Civil Rights Walk of Fame. Heekin Park is

Indiana Glass Trail
Delaware County embraces the Indiana Glass Trail. The trail
is a showcase for talented Hoosier artisans and glass blowers

can be experienced first hand. There are studios, galleries
and museums as well as festivals and workshops included
in the trail.
Fans of glass artisans, glass blowers, jar collectors, history
enthusiasts and more will find something of interest in
Delaware County relating to glass.
Finding additional glass artists along the Indiana Glass Trail
can be done by visiting www.indianaglasstrail.com. Glass
artists and shops that carry their work can easily be found.

Muncie’s Glass Heritage
In 1887, the Ball family moved its glass manufacturing
business from Buffalo, New York to Muncie. Ball Brothers
Glass Company became one of America’s best known
manufacturers of canning jars.
The Ball family purchased most of the land along the north
bank of White River Between Wheeling and Granville pikes
in 1893. The name chosen by the family for the property
was taken from a Sioux word, “mna” (pronounced mini)
which means “water,” and combined with the English word,
“tryst,” to form “Minnetrista,” or, “a gathering place by
the water.”
The origin of the cultural center dates back to 1978, when
Margaret Ball Petty wrote to her cousin Edmund F. Ball,
suggesting that the Ball Brothers Foundation provide a
museum in which to exhibit fine art.
