About Mazza

In 1982, the late Jerry Mallett, Ed.D., former professor of education at Findlay College, proposed the idea to build a museum dedicated to the art of picture books. With four pieces of art provided through a gift from the late Dr. August ‘41 and Aleda Mazza ‘41, the collection began. The Mazza Museum at the University of Findlay, originally housed in the basement of the University’s Shafer Library, was formally dedicated on Jan. 23, 1983.

BRAND GUIDE

Writing Style Guide

The Mazza Museum largely follows the same writing guidelines as the University of Findlay found on the website at www.findlay.edu/brand or Associated Press (AP) Style. As an institution affiliated with the University, the Museum does have some standards that differ based on its unique audiences and goals.
