Winnie-the-Pooh Competition

Win a family ticket to see Winnie-the-Pooh: Exploring a Classic at the V&A

This multi-sensory and playful exhibition explores the magical world of Winnie-the-Pooh – one of the most adored fictional characters of all time. Experience the timeless and universal appeal of this much-loved bear and discover the story behind the creative partnership of A.A. Milne and E.H. Shepard, brought to life through sketches, letters, photographs, cartoons, ceramics and fashion. Some of the original drawings of Winnie-the-Pooh are on display at the V&A for the first time in nearly 40 years. 

Visitors are taken on a journey exploring the thrilling interplay between text and illustration, shedding new light on the creative collaboration between Milne and Shepard. The exhibition explores Milne’s storytelling including his wonderful and humorous use of language. It also looks at how Shepard produced enduring illustrations, combining expressive line with white space and an understated humour matching that of Milne. Visiting children will be encouraged to explore their own creativity through art and word play.

This popular exhibition provides a wonderful nostalgic trip down memory lane as well as an introduction to a much loved character for younger audiences. We have a family ticket to give away for the final weeks or this must-see exhibition.
