In the Main Gallery this summer, the Pearl Fincher Museum of Fine Arts is thrilled to host “Elephant & Piggie in WE ARE ART!” (A Mo Willems exhibition), organized by The Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art in Amherst, Massachusetts.

Mo Willems is one of the most celebrated children’s book authors and artists working today. Since their debut in 2007, Elephant & Piggie have entertained millions of children and adults with their hilarious escapades that impart valuable lessons on manners, empathy, emotions, and—most importantly—friendship.

This free exhibition will feature 75 works including original illustrations, color digital renderings, early sketches, dummy books, and more, as well as a cozy reading area for families to enjoy these wonderful stories together. 

The Pearl’s presentation of “Elephant & Piggie in WE ARE ART!” is generously sponsored by AAUW North Harris County Branch. 

Summer exhibitions open Saturday, June 3 and continue through September 2, 2023. Museum hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. Admission is FREE.
