About
Experience the wonder of 'Make, Believe, Magic: The Worlds of The Jim Henson Company' on an exclusive guided tour before GOMA opens to the public.
With surprises around every corner, the exhibition explores the 70-year legacy of The Jim Henson Company’s characters and imaginative worlds, brought to life by innovative puppetry that transports us from the everyday to a place far more extraordinary. During your tour, you may even catch a glimpse of what goes on behind the scenes as the Gallery 'wakes up' for the day.
After the tour, enjoy a delightful morning tea at GOMA Bistro by the river. As a bonus, you'll be able to revisit the exhibition later that same day at your own pace.
