Jim Henson and all his fantastical creatures hold a special place in the hearts of Gen X and Millennials. Whether you first became a fan with Sesame Street, The Muppet Show, Fraggle Rock, or even a cartoon like Muppet Babies, Jim Henson has been a part of your childhood whether you realized it or not. Heck, Muppet Babies is still on TV making new episodes as recently as 2022.
I literally took the day off of work to visit the Jim Henson exhibit at the GRAM in Grand Rapids before it wrapped up and was thrilled to see costumes from one of my favorite Jim Henson joints Labyrinth.
