Eric Carle: Art, Books, and the Caterpillar

23 Oct 2026 — 20 Dec 2026

About the event

Around 180 items include original illustrations for 27 picture books and dummy books used during their creation. Looking at the pages as designed objects makes this rewarding for adults as well as children. The special shop requires a valid exhibition ticket for that day.
