Free Puppet Shows to some VT Schools

Jan 29, 2010 by

Did you know? The Vermont Arts Council (VAC) is offering a new, easy grant program, which will pay for the PuppeTree’s newest production 14 Carrots, plus A WORKSHOP for 20-35 of your youngest students…pre-k to 2nd grade.

Vermont’s PuppeTree, Inc. is offering this specially priced production for $250, and we’ll throw in the $100 workshop for free! That means when you receive the grant ($250) the program will not cost you a thing!

14 Carrots is perfect for Story Time in a corner of the classroom or just about anywhere. Young children sit on the floor and follow the adventures of Aunt Swelly and a cast of pop-up-book puppets as she tries to enter the job market selling carrots. There’s lots of opportunity to get involved and play along with her “hare” brained ideas. Then, everyone makes a puppet right after the show.

Please go to our website at www.vtpuppeTree.org for a peek at all out productions.

The 14 Carrots webpage and ideas to enrich the experience will be online soon.

Just in time for SPRING … the grant is on a first-come-first-served basis, so consider this show before the school year ends!

It‘s easy…here’s all you have to do…
