LImagine you are on the wing of a great owl swooping over the southern Berkshires. You swing down neara tiny hamlet nestled in the rollinghills. You flypastthe Great Mountain Forest, gliding above Toby Pond. You spot the steeples of the churches and the vivid green of Infinity Hall. You see the Norfolk Library with its regal turret. Sweeping down,you sense energy and movement. Coming closer, you peep into the window and see puppets and people of all ages smiling and laughing. You land on the lamppost and noticea poster below. Peering a bit closer, you can read it… “The very first Greenwoods Puppet Festival, Norfolk Library, September 13-15, 2019. All are welcome.”

Please circle the date and tell your family and friends to visit for an autumnal weekend full of theatrics, creativity, and magic! A variety of puppet shows for children and adults has been scheduled, presented by puppeteers who have won recognition by the Jim Henson Foundation. More on the Greenwoods Puppet Festival in the months ahead.
