Jim Henson's Fantastic World January 17, 2011

Get a rare peek into the imagination of Jim Henson--a brilliant innovator and the creator of Kermit, Big Bird and other beloved characters. This exhibition features 100 original artworks, including drawings, cartoons and storyboards that demonstrate Henson's talent as a story teller. The exhibit also documents Henson's process of "visual thinking" through renderings, photographs, documents, puppets and film. View the iconic puppets created by Henson, television and movie props, photographs of Henson and his collaborators at work, as well as original video productions and experimental films from Henson's early career. Guests will also get an opportunity to express their own inventiveness through a series of fun and original hands-on activities.
