The exhibit features original puppets, sets and production material from films and series including Corpse Bride, Frankenweenie and Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio. It is an unusually tactile look at the craft behind frame-by-frame animation.

For someone who shoots photos, edits video and makes physical objects, this is a lesson in miniature fabrication, lighting and visual storytelling. The museum lists $18 nonmember admission and about 90 minutes for a visit.

What to do: Reserve a slot today if available, or save it for a clearer-weather day.
