Yesterday we posted about how we've already transformed some of the many columns in our museum. Here's a look at one that's still in progress... 🐠

Check out this scale model for our exhibit celebrating one of @dahlovipcar's gorgeous picture books. It includes the gentle merman farmer, the sword he uses to cut fishing nets, his trusty seahorse and two spotted dogfish.

You might not notice it when visiting The Rabbit hOle today, but this 100+ year old warehouse has giant concrete columns every 22 feet, which poses a unique design and curatorial challenge. 🤔

Three summers ago we were in the process of transforming three of the columns into exhibits celebrating The Happy Day written by Ruth Krauss and illustrated by Marc Simont; Come Follow Me written and illustrated by Gyo Fujikawa; and Where the Sidewalk Ends written and illustrated by Shel Silverstein.

Tomorrow we'll share a sneak peak of another column we' currently working on!

Pickles dropped in to remind us that 124 years ago on July 24, 1902 the author and illustrator of The Fire Cat, Esther Averill, was born! 🚨

Before creating her own books, Esther created her own publishing company, The Domino Press.

All the cats featured in her Cat Club series were inspired by her own felines or those she got to know around Greenwich Village. 😽

Our newest exhibit celebrates Zen Shorts, written and illustrated by Jon J Muth! 🐼🌸

These images show some of the planning and fabrication that went into the exhibit, which was years in the making. Much like the meditative lessons the giant panda named Stillwater shares in the book, the creation of this exhibit was an exercise in patience and enlightenment for everyone involved.

Because of the intimate and quiet nature of the exhibit, it is ticketed (available at the front desk) and has several special requirements including wearing socks and a limit of 5 people for each 10 minute session.

Learn more about the making of our Zen Shorts exhibit in our latest blog entry on our website - link in bio.
