To celebrate Maurice Sendak’s 82nd birthday we’ll go back to his roots as an illustrator in his collaborations with author Ruth Kraus. Just how did Maurice Sendak and Ruth Krauss transform children’s language, (mis)behavior, and imagination into poetry and artwork? Join in this discussion of what Sendak called the “colossal egos” of children and why they make great art.

This talk is led by Patrick Rodgers, Traveling Exhibitions Coordinator. All gallery talks are included in the price of admission. Reservations are not required.
