Nightmares, things that go bump in the night, and “what’s under the bed?” are enduring features of childhood’s dream time. One element continues to terrify us into adulthood, namely the monstrous population occupying the space under our beds. The library’s annual wit & humor exhibition reduces our night frights to the silly, absurd, and ridiculously funny in Under the Bed: Monstrous Selections from the Schmulowitz Collection of Wit & Humor. Presented by Book Arts & Special Collections.
On view in the Saroyan Gallery, Sixth Floor, Main Library: April 1-June 30
