Charlie Brown and the Great Exhibit

Halloween is about treats, Charlie Brown and the Great Exhibit is a best gift for Charles m. Schulz fans. Charlie Brown and the gang are going to the windy city Chicago for the winter months as of October 25th. The Museum of Science and Industry, Chicago will open Charlie Brown and the Great Exhibit, highlighting the legacy of famed cartoonist Charles Schulz and his Peanuts gang. The exhibit will run through Feb. 18, 2013.

Charlie Brown and the Great Exhibit explores Schulz’s personal history and his role as the sole inspiration and artistic talent behind Peanuts and its unique cast of characters. Through original cartoons, as well as reproductions and related Peanuts ephemera, guests will see how characters like Charlie Brown, Snoopy and Lucy were developed and how they evolved over decades in print and popular culture. Schulz’s Santa Rosa, Calif. studio, recreated for the first time on tour, will allow for a deeper look into his work and life.
