12-ft Kermit/Chaplin Statue Finds a New Home in Atlanta
Following the announced sale of The Jim Henson Company’s historic La Brea studio lot, the iconic 12-foot Kermit the Frog statue, depicting Kermit in Charlie Chaplin’s Little Tramp costume, is coming down as part of the property’s transfer. The Henson family has chosen to gift the sculpture to the Center for Puppetry Arts, underscoring their confidence in our institution as a leading steward of the Henson legacy and home to the world’s largest collection of Henson artifacts.
The statue will be permanently installed on our Midtown Atlanta campus, where plans are underway to ensure public access and visibility. This transition involves substantial logistics, including cross-country transport, refurbishment after many years outdoors, and structural engineering to prepare its long-term placement.
A new interpretive plaque is now on view in our galleries, sharing the history of the sculpture and its forthcoming relocation. Fans can look forward to an unveiling event in Atlanta once installation is complete.
