Chittenango's Oz-stravaganza is still happening, but it will be virtual this year. The 44th year of the event runs through Sunday.

Organizers say many of their events can carry over well, like the coloring contest and the auction.

The interviews that normally happen on Friday and Saturday night are still happening, they're just going to be rolled out through the weekend.

It may look a little different, but organizers say they made the decision to go virtual based on the timing.

"We start planning this event in August of the year before and we weren't really in a place where we could plan a major event and bring 30,000 people to Chittenango for a weekend. So it forced us to think outside the box," said Marc Baum of the International L. Frank Baum & All Things Oz Foundation.

The All Things Oz museum is set to reopen and the end of this month. While closed during the pandemic, the museum made multiple renovations, like new carpeting and display cabinets.
