Star Wars: The Magic of Myth reveals the connections between selected objects in the Institute's permanent collection and the actual artifacts used in creating the award-winning Star Wars films. Both the films and the artworks draw on ancient myths and legends to tell their thrilling stories.

The Minneapolis exhibition is sponsored by Target Corporation and USBank. All of the artifacts in the exhibition are on loan from the archives of Lucasfilm Ltd.
