The author’s niece, Sophia Jansson, will lead an intimate tour of the exhibition, sharing reflections on the legacy of the Moomins internationally and within Tove’s world. <em>The Door Is Always Open</em> offers a rare opportunity in the U.S. to step into Jansson’s creative universe through immersive installations, archival materials, multilingual editions of her books, and public programming for all ages.</div>
