LEARN MORE ABOUT THE PROJECT

With support from the Sherman Family Foundation, The Rabbit hOle purchased a 165,000 sq/ft building in North Kansas City. View the space taking shape and see what lies ahead for our visitors.

Visitors will become explorers in an immersive, narrative landscape filled with discoverable environments.

THE WORLD'S FIRST EXPLOR-A-STORIUM

Within this radical literary wonderland, you can catch a ride with Nana and CJ on the bus to the Last Stop on Market Street; whisper “Goodnight Moon” in the quiet dark of the great green room; walk through Peter’s house and out his back door into The Snowy Day; feed jum-jills to The Funny Thing, or find yourself scaling the cliffs of My Father’s Dragon.

You can help The Rabbit hOle in our mission to create a living culture around literature that will nourish, empower, and inspire the reading lives of children and adults for generations to come!
