the jewish museum
i went to the jewish museum on a mission to see one thing: a small money named george.
the exhibit, curious george saves the day: the art of margret and h.a. rey, was on the second floor, which is a different location than the other special exhibits i have seen at the museum. the layout was done chronologically throughout their life, starting in about 1938 through the rest of their life.
the exhibit was a mixture of letters, illustrations, pictures and their custom holiday cards! i wish i could find some photographs of these holiday cards. they were fantastic! they were probably my favorite surprise in the exhibit. they also had illustrations from curious george goes to the hospital, which a favorite growing up. another interesting factoid from exhibit, curious george is not an actual species of monkey. who knew?
note: the museum is always free on saturdays, but unfortunately, the gift shop is closed on saturdays.
times visited: 3
time in museum: 45 minutes
overall: B
