Fans of Alice, the Mad Hatter, and the Queen of Hearts are in for such a treat as UT’s Harry Ransom Center celebrates 150 years of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland with an exhibit centered around Lewis Carroll’s beloved book. The exhibit opens on Tuesday, Feb. 10 and runs through Monday, July 6. Learn about Lewis Carroll and the real Alice who inspired his story. See one of the few surviving copies of the first edition of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. Follow the White Rabbit’s path through the exhibition, have a tea party, or watch a 1933 paper filmstrip that has been carefully treated by Ransom Center conservators.
The Center’s vast collections offer a new look at a story that has delighted generations and inspired artists from Salvador Dalí to Walt Disney. Check out this video preview:
