Jim Henson Exhibit Coming to Seattle

I don't know if anyone's from Seattle, or not, but my friend told me there's a Henson exhibit coming to the EMP in Seattle from May to August next year!

Yes! So happy this is coming up here. I'll be there!

Does anyone know if Steve and Dave are coming to talk at the Seattle exhibit like they did in Atlanta? I couldn't find anything about that on the tour itinerary.

I am going to a behind the scenes tour of the Sci Fi Museum (It's part of/attached to the Experience Music Project, where the exhibit will be in Seattle) on Saturday. I've been told that my tour guide will know about the upcoming Muppet exhibit. If I find any information I can share, I'll most likely call or write to Steve Swanson to put up on Muppetcast; and will try to remember to post it here.
