Long Island Picture Frame & Art Gallery of Oyster Bay

Come discover the art behind the stories and see Dr. Seuss as you’ve never seen him before.
DISCOVER THE ART OF DR. SEUSS
A Special Exhibition During Oyster Festival Weekend
Presented by Long Island Picture Frame &amp; Art Gallery – Oyster Bay
Step inside the wonderfully imaginative world of Dr. Seuss for an extraordinary exhibition celebrating the art, characters, and creativity of Theodor Seuss Geisel.
EVENT SCHEDULE
VIP Reception Friday, October 16 | 5:30 PM – 8:30 PM
Public Exhibition Saturday, October 17 | 10:00 AM – 6:00 PM Sunday, October 18 | 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM
FREE ADMISSION • ALL ARTWORK AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE
A WORLD BEYOND THE BOOKS
Discover a vibrant collection of serigraphs, mixed-media works, and fine art on paper and canvas, featuring beloved characters including The Grinch, The Cat in the Hat, Sunbathing Bird, and many more.
The exhibition also offers a fascinating glimpse into The Secret Art of Dr. Seuss—the remarkable private artwork Geisel created for himself, away from the pages of his famous books.
Explore his wildly imaginative Unorthodox Taxidermy, including such fantastical creations as the Carbonic Walrus, Powerless Puffer, and Kangaroo Bird.
SPECIAL GUEST
Jeff Schuffman Director of The Art of Dr. Seuss Collection
Guests will have the opportunity to discover the stories behind the artwork and experience a side of Dr. Seuss that many have never seen.
THE CAT BEHIND THE HAT
Ted Geisel often portrayed himself as “The Cat Behind the Hat,” a playful alter ego that appeared throughout his private art, advertising, and editorial work.
Although his artwork was highly sought after during his lifetime, Geisel never released limited-edition fine art. In 1997, six years after his passing, his artistic legacy was formally introduced to collectors, revealing Dr. Seuss as not only a literary icon, but a remarkably original visual artist.
Each work in the collection is authorized by the Dr. Seuss estate and faithfully adapted from Geisel’s original artwork.
OYSTER FESTIVAL WEEKEND - EXPERIENCE SOMETHING UNEXPECTED
Whimsical. Imaginative. Sophisticated. And unmistakably Seuss.
Whether you grew up with The Cat in the Hat, love The Grinch, or are discovering Dr. Seuss as a fine artist for the first time, this is an exhibition for collectors, families, and Seuss fans of every generation.
Come discover the art behind the stories—and see Dr. Seuss as you’ve never seen him before.
