Mug on a Rug
Every year, after the Fourth of July, your Musikfest mug comes to life while you’re sleeping to make sure that you’re properly preparing yourself for the ‘fest. It’s a cherished and completely made up tradition that we affectionately call “Mug on a Rug” (we know, but it had to rhyme like those other holiday ones, ok?).
Check back to this page – and the Musikfest Instagram, Facebook and Twitter pages – to follow along with the shenanigans that the mugs of ArtsQuest staffers get into and share your mug’s antics using #mugonarug
