Tom Hanks Mister Rogers costume and puppets from A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood on display...

In A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood, a troubled and jaded journalist played by Matthew Rhys is assigned the task of contributing to an article on iconic heroes for Esquire magazine. He is assigned beloved children's TV show host, Fred Rogers (Tom Hanks), host of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood (which ran from 1968 to 2001), and wonders if the hand puppet-wielding 'saint' is for real, but begins to change his perspective on life after spending time with him. The film is based on Tom Junod's "Can You Say... Hero?" article published in Esquire in 1998.

Arjun Bhasin was Costume Designer on the biographical film directed by Marielle Heller.

Tom Hanks fans can also take a took at his movie costume from Bridge of Spies, his Apollo 13 movie costumes, his tuxedo from Charlie Wilson's War, his movie costume from The Post, and his Saving Mr. Banks film costume on display.

Apparently Costume Designer Arjun Bhasin sourced a knitter in New York to replicate Fred Rogers iconic cardigans, knowing that his mother often hand-knit his sweaters. This particular exhibit also features a tie loaned to the film by Fred's wife, Joanne Rogers.
