Winnie-the-Pooh: Exploring a Classic was an exhibition on the history of the Winnie-the-Pooh books.
The exhibit includes pages from A. A. Milne and E. H. Shepard's works, a diary from Harry Colebourn, as well as Pooh merchandise. The exhibition has recreations of Christopher Robin's bed and other settings from the Winnie-the-Pooh books.[1]
The tour started at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London and finish at the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto, Canada.[2]
In Toronto, the exhibit was originally planned to run from 7 March 2020 to 3 August 2020 [3][4] but was forced to down after 7 days due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[5] It was located inside the Roloff Beny Gallery within the Michael Lee-Chin Crystal.[6] The exhibit reopened on September 1, 2020 with a planned closure of January 17, 2021.[7] Unfortunately it was forced to close again on November 22, 2020 after 83 days.[8]
