Seuss on the Loose in Springfield
An exhibition that tells the story of Theodor Geisel's (Dr. Seuss's) childhood in Springfield with family photographs and genealogical information about the Seuss-Geisel family history. Also included are photographs and memorabilia from Kalmbach & Geisel Brewery, the family business founded by Ted's grandfather. The exhibit also features some remarkable comparisons of Dr. Seuss's fanciful illustrations with actual places in Springfield that he would have known.
SeussScape:
A small play area for young children with bright, colorful walls illustrated with scenes and creatures from Dr. Seuss's books. Activities include a push-button listening station where children can hear the Cat in the Hat talking, Dr. Seuss books, child-size furniture, and a display of Dr. Seuss toys and collectibles inspired by his books.
