CONCEPT ART

Welcome to our Main Gallery where we invite you to explore a magical world of make believe! Climb our giant storyteller tree, find charming animals and miniatures hidden among the branches. Step onto the deck of a vintage wooden ship and seek out hidden treasure, enter the writer’s room to get lost in a world of fairy tales and ghost stories, enjoy the mesmerizing paintings in a forest of giant brightly colored mushrooms. The Main Gallery will be a captivating space filled with sound, video, miniatures, installations, paintings, sculpture and much more!

Do you remember catching fireflies in an old mason jar and lying in the grass watching them glimmer at dusk before flying away in spectacular trails of burning light? Our Enchanted Forest perfectly captures that childhood feeling. In this special place it is always nighttime…this magical forest is filled with stepping stone paths, the sounds and sights of the woodland, exotic flowers, and tiny lights dancing all around. 

The entrance to the Museum of Make Believe will take you down a dusty wood-planked Old West boardwalk. Our friendly staff will be ready to greet and guide you into either the Main Gallery or our Dream Parlor Café which is reminiscent of a 1950’s old fashioned soda fountain. At the Dream Parlor Café you can enjoy unique ice cream treats and sweets as well as tempting drinks like the Shooting Star Sipper, a white hot chocolate made with fresh blueberries.  Or Fricka’s Magic Elixir, a tart lemonade that transforms into a bright purple shimmering potion.
