miffy is undoubtedly the most popular bunny in the world. The first miffy book was published in 1955. Since then, miffy has conquered the hearts of children from all continents. Today, the picture books are translated into more than fifty languages and distributed worldwide. Dick Bruna (b. 1927) is the creator of the international star, miffy, but he has also created many other characters: Hettie Hedgehog, Snuffy the dog, Poppy Pig, and the bears Boris and Barbara.
In addition, Dick also realised more than 2,000 book covers for his father’s publishing company in the Black Bears-paperback series. They are all gems of design and worth viewing.
This exhibition introduces you to the life and work of Dick Bruna. In the interactive workstations from ABC you can delve further into the simple colour and design language of Dick Bruna, and you can also try it yourself.


Students visit the exhibition in small groups accompanied by ABC guides. They discover the wonderful world of Dick Bruna by exploring and creating at the expo and workstations.
In collaboration with Mercis bv & CC Mechelen.
