Puppet Show & Library Party

We’ll kick off summer programming on June 17th from 12-2pm with a Library Party! The party will start with an all-ages outside puppet show titled Punschi from Jana at Sandglass Theatre. Originally created by Sandglass’ co-founder, Ines Zeller Bass and performed by her daughter Jana Zeller, Punschi is an enchanting tradition of imaginative puppetry in the tradition of German fairground entertainment! Featuring a selection of hand puppet acts, general buffoonery and music, presented by this second generation international puppeteer. Punschi is an abbreviation for “Puppentheater unter’m Schirm” or “puppet theater under the umbrella”, a fitting title as the show is performed under a giant sun umbrella. The show encourages audience participation and response.

This program is funded by a grant from the Vermont Department of Libraries and The Guilford Central School, through title 1 program funding, will provide snacks, free book bags, and information for parents about how to engage with…
