Explore the captivating worlds of mystery and wonder in this exhibition featuring highlights from the Norman Rockwell Museum’s Permanent Collection, which now holds almost 25,000 illustrations by prominent artists working across genres and time periods.

Specific selections include Teresa Fasolino’s colorful, clue-filled mystery novel cover illustrations; Thomas Woodruff’s ethereal book jacket art for best-selling novels by Anne Tyler and Gabriel García Márquez; lighthearted visual puns for Stewart Edelstein’s Dubious Doublets by James Grashow; luminous watercolors for The Wizard of Oz and other stories by Thea Kliros; steamy pulp illustrations by Everett Raymond Kinstler and Mort Kunstler; mystical three-dimensional illustrations for books and magazines by Joan Hall; fictional American histories by Julian Allen; a fun and engaging Rockwell Who-Dun-It; and a brand new Rockwell acquisition that offers mysteries of its own.

On March 9 from 5:00-7:00pm, join us for a Members Reception for the new spring exhibition, Mystery and Wonder: Highlights from the Illustration Collection. Enjoy light refreshments, meet some of the artists featured in the exhibition, and view a newly acquired Rockwell work depicting the Election of 1800.
