There's a fuzzy new exhibit coming to a museum near you that showcases the works of puppet messiah Jim Henson. The Fantastic Voyage is sponsored by the Smithsonian Institute and showcases some of Henson's most beloved and well known characters, like Bert and Ernie, Kermit, and Rowlf the piano playing dog, so you can see your Muppet pals up close and personal. Plus there's lots of concept art, sketches and photographs spanning the entire career of the world's most beloved puppeteer. Jim Henson fanatics unite and show the puppet master some love when the exhibit comes to your town!

Yeah, that exhibit opened 4 years ago and has only ONE more city to go before it ends. Thanks for getting our hopes up. Our closest city (still a three hour drive) had the exhibit 2 years ago.
