Happy 100th Birthday Esphyr!
The Slobodkina Foundation honors the centennial of artist, author, and illustrator Esphyr Slobodkina with a year of celebrations, including the kick-off of a major traveling retrospective. Learn More.

WELCOME to the Slobodkina Foundation, a non-profit organization. Building upon the creative achievements of artist, author, and children's book illustrator Esphyr Slobodkina, we provide a model for individuals, ages 3 to 103, to live productively at every age through programs that enrich the minds of children and elevate the spirit of seniors. The Foundation provides children's literacy activities, discussion groups, art tours, and interactive performances to school groups, senior organizations, and community groups. We achieve these goals fully utilizing the fine art, illustrations, and decorative works of Esphyr Slobodkina, created throughout nine decades, housed at the Slobodkina Foundation in Glen Head, New York.

Our website is designed with interests of many in mind, including educators, scholars, parents, and collectors. Those interested in learning more about the art and life of Esphyr Slobodkina can access essays and articles about the artist, and can view examples of her paintings, sculptures, children’s books, jewelry, dolls and various other works. The expansive online art gallery offers prospective buyers an opportunity to view works conveniently. We provide detailed information about each piece and a link to our art sales representatives.

Parents and teachers will find information about upcoming children’s programs and services, and a handy list of Slobodkina’s books for children, complete with synopses. We make it easy to purchase book merchandise by offering everything in one place. All books and posters are special editions embossed with the Slobodkina Foundation seal. 

We hope you enjoy your visit and encourage you to write to us with your comments and ideas.

Thank you,

The Slobodkina Foundation Board of Directors
