January/February news

Hello! Here's an update about my school offerings and my show/event schedule, with more out-of-town library shows and a few changes in my regular gigs. Please note my special show at Lilikoi Coffee tomorrow, Monday, from 10-10:45am, and the next Family Jam at Friendly House on Friday, February 8. 

School Performances & Residencies:
I recently added a performance program to the Young Audiences roster. It's called "The Deep Woods: Animals in American Folksongs" and it's geared toward PK-3rd graders. If your child's school is looking for an engaging musical puppet performance for an assembly or family night, please recommend me! I continue to offer my "Folk Song Puppet Show" residency through YA, and I joined the Right Brain Initiative's roster of teaching artists in the fall. I should be available for residencies/performances through Right Brain in the spring.

January 18 will be my last Friday afternoon there for a while, as I'm starting a new afterschool class at Bridlemile. In February and March I'll be at Milagros on the 1st & 3rd Wednesday mornings, 10-10:45am(alternating with Woodlawn Swap'n'Play). We'll see how that goes and possibly switch back to Fridays afternoons in April. $3/walking person.
