EVENT

Crafting the Creatures and Characters of Jim Henson’s World: A Talk with Bonnie Erickson, Caroly Wilcox, and Rollie Krewson

Ongoing

Bonnie Erickson, Caroly Wilcox, and Rollie Krewson all worked with Jim Henson for decades, designing and building beloved puppet characters for Sesame Street, The Muppet Show, and beyond. Join us for a live online conversation about what it took to bring such characters as Elmo, Miss Piggy, and Fizzgig from sketch to screen, illustrated by rare, behind-the-scenes photos.

Please RSVP here. Instructions for joining the live event will be sent by email. 

While this event is free, we hope you will consider supporting the Museum with a donation. MoMI’s staff is working hard to fulfill its mission via remote programming. This comes with opportunities to experiment but also profound challenges. Your support is critical to ensure our work remains vital and visible to a broad public. Suggested donation: $10. Donate here.
