A Big Adventure in the World of Art – For Kids! Ever wonder how a painting ends up on a museum wall? Or how a sculpture makes it from a messy studio to a grand gallery? Get ready for a behind-the-scenes adventure like no other! Making a Great Exhibition is a colorful, playful peek into the magical journey of art—from the artist’s imagination all the way to a bustling museum opening. Perfect for kids ages 3–7, this beautifully illustrated book introduces young readers to the creative world of curators, shippers, photographers, and more. It’s a celebration of teamwork, creativity, and the many cool jobs in the art world.

Follow two artists as they turn ideas into real-life masterpieces. Along the way, kids discover the people and processes that bring an exhibition to life, showing how a simple idea becomes an artwork seen by thousands. Written by Doro Globus and illustrated by Rose Blake—both raised in the art world—the book is packed with vibrant images, fun characters, and an authentic love for creativity. Rose is best known for her artwork in A History of Pictures for Children by David Hockney and Martin Gayford. Doro brings her love for both the arts and storytelling to this engaging, educational read.

This isn’t just a book—it’s an inspiring introduction to the creative world that might just spark the dream of a future artist, curator, or museum lover.
