Want to know more about Sendak and The Rosenbach?
Did you know that Philadelphia is the spot to see original art by Maurice Sendak? In the late 70s, the author and illustrator of over 100 children’s classics and other books, hand-picked the Rosenbach to be the repository for his work. The museum, located in Philly’s historic Rittenhouse Square neighborhood, has the largest collection of “Sendakiana” in the world including over 3,000 works of art and more than 7,000 other working materials. To see Sendak’s work in-person, visit the Rosenbach before the exhibition closes on May 3 and check out There’s A Mystery There: Sendak on Sendak online.
