Friday Morning Puppet Shows!

Free Monthly Show for Pre-School - 3rd Grade Groups.

Once a month, October through March, we offer free puppet shows to day-care groups and classes!

These 30-45 minute puppet shows are presented in the casual setting of our lobby.

Lots of interaction and an opportunity to speak with the puppteers after the show make this a great field trip for your class or day care group.
