An Edward Gorey Theatrical Exhibition

It matters not which coast you live on or if you reside somewhere inbetween, 2025 is the year to find rare and unusual treasures by Edward Gorey on display. The Cartoon Art Museum in San Francisco is presenting Backstage With Edward Gorey, A Centennial Exhibition, which runs from Saturday April 5, 2025 through August 10, 2025.

The exhibition will feature original artwork, posters, and ephemera  related to Edward Gorey's theatrical career from the personal collection of Carol Verburg. Ms. Verburg was Mr. Gorey's theatrical collaborator and friend in the 1990's and she produced many of the theatrical entertainments he created. The exhibition will include many of Ms. Verburg's personal treasures that she featured in her book The Theatrical Adventures of Edward Gorey (published 2024 by Chronicle Books).
