The Dr. Seuss Museum Recently Opened in Massachusetts
Mishal Omar — June 7, 2017 — Pop Culture
The new Dr. Seuss Museum is located in Springfield, Massachusetts, and features an array of exhibitions inspired and made by the famed author.
Called 'The Amazing World of Dr. Seuss,' the space is based in the same town that the writer and illustrator was born – which his great-nephew Theodor Owens said had been a "big influence" on his great uncle's work. The Dr. Seuss Museum features interactive exhibits, a collection of the author's personal belongings, and follows Seuss' history and how his childhood experiences shaped his famous work.
The Amazing World of Dr. Seuss, with both its exterior and interior inspired by the author's famous illustrations, is designed for children but will likely appeal to adults just as much.
