This exhibition features rare on-set photographs, production designs and
other material from the 1971 musical Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.

The landmark film was co-produced by the Center's namesake beneficiary,
David L. Wolper, and he contributed much of the material on display.

Roald Dahl wrote the film's script, based on his own book. Dahl's offbeat
vision was so unexpected in a children's film that the movie was initially
received with bewilderment. It has since been recognized as a classic.
