Ballard Institute and Museum of Puppetry

The Ballard Institute will once again offer fall community puppet-building workshops led by acclaimed puppeteer Sara Peattie to design and build life-size and over-life-size puppets for a new pageant production—The Conference of the Birds—to be performed at the Celebrate Mansfield Festival in Downtown Storrs. 

The Conference of the Birds puppet pageant, directed by Sara Peattie, and loosely based on the 12th-century poem by Persian poet Farid ud-Din Attar, will employ masks and puppets of all sizes, created by workshop participants, to celebrate specific birds of Connecticut, as well as endangered bird species and imaginary birds. The pageant will be performed outdoors in Betsy Paterson Square with live music as part of the 21st-annual Celebrate Mansfield Festival on the afternoon of Saturday, Sept. 28. 

No experience is necessary to participate in these free community puppet-building workshops. Space is limited, so advance registration is strongly encouraged. Participants can come for one or both days (September 14th and/or 15th)&nbsp;but should register for the 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. or/and 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. time slot(s). Minors must be accompanied by an adult.

As part of its 2024 Fall Puppet Forum Series and in conjunction with the <a href="https://bimp.uconn.edu/2024/09/05/2024-fall-slam/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">2024 UConn Fall Puppet Slam</a> on Sept. 20, the Ballard Institute and Museum of Puppetry is pleased to host Puppet Slams: Short-Form Puppetry for the 21st Century, a discussion with Puppet Slam Network (PSN) founder Heather Henson; Brenna Ross, the Producer &amp; General Manager for Green Feather Foundation, which oversees the PSN; and Anatar Marmol-Gagné, director of the Pinned and Sewtered Puppet Slam in New Haven, Connecticut; on Wednesday, Sept. 18, 2024 at 7 p.m. at the Ballard Institute Theater, located at 1 Royce Circle in Downtown Storrs. This forum, moderated by Ballard Institute director (and puppet slam performer) John Bell, will also be broadcast via Ballard Institute Facebook Live (<a href="https://www.facebook.com/BallardInstitute" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">facebook.com/BallardInstitute</a>). 

This forum will explore puppet slams, which are live performances of curated, short-form puppetry acts for adult audiences that emerged from avant-garde puppet performance practices in the 1980s, with older roots in vaudeville and other popular practices. The Puppet Slam Network, founded by Heather Henson and IBEX Puppetry in 2005, encourages the growth and diversity of the puppet slam scene, and currently supports over 50 slams in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. To learn more about the speakers, visit: <a href="https://bimp.uconn.edu/2024/09/06/slam-forum/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://bimp.uconn.edu/2024/09/06/slam-forum/</a> 

Admission to this event is free (donations greatly appreciated!), and refreshments will be served.

The Packing House --- 156 River Rd --- Willington CT

Acoustic Artist Series: Jon Pousette-Dart &amp; Jim Chapdelaine Doors open 6:30pm / Event starts 7:30pm Tickets: $30 in advance online or $35 cash at the door You're welcome to "BYOB &amp; Food" to the venue
A little bit of time has passed between when Jon Pousette-Dart as a teenager started forging a path in the musical landscape that started in the 60's and laid a foundation with the original Pousette-Dart Band. Throughout the 70's and into the 80's the band earned a national following and produced 5 releases for Capital that made a deep imprint in the world of album radio, when we all used to only listen to vinyl.
When the band parted ways, Jon continued working and began navigating back to where he started recording in earnest with many of Nashville's finest. Some twenty odd years ago, Jon crossed paths with Jim Chapdelaine, one of the more formidable musicians he crossed paths with. Jon continued touring as their musical collaboration continued to brew into a satisfying vital musical landscape of it’s own.
Pousette-Dart and Chapdelaine discovered they shared a gift both in the studio and on the stage that rose above the hum drum drudgery of day to day existence, and were able to reach into people’s souls and pull out pieces of magic that created joy and fresh air, no matter which roads or towns their journeys took them. And now as fate would have it, they have a renewed passion and vigor to explore the world of flats, sharps, repeats, words and crescendos to make small babies smile and precious mothers relax into their easy chairs and remember all the good that the world holds.
So, no matter your predilections, or worries or concerns in your everyday life, consider taking a moment to breath, and buy a ticket when they come to your town. It’s something to seriously consider to see and hear where little pieces of joy come to life.
Please join us for this special evening of original music by these legendary artists. This program is hosted by the Eastern Connecticut Center for History, Art, and Performance (EC-CHAP).
Soft drinks and snacks available. We are pleased to offer our exclusive "BYOB&amp;F" TM model - Bring Your Own Beverage &amp; Food (Wine &amp; Beer Only - I.D. Required). You can also bring your paid ticket to Willington Pizza House for eat-in or take-out the night of the show and receive 15% off your meal purchase. Ask for "The Packing House" pizza!
