Join us at the Grand Marais Public Library on Thursday, August 17th at 10:30 a.m. for a free, family friendly puppet showcase, followed by a summer reading celebration picnic COMPAS Teaching Artist Christopher Lutter-Gardella will set-up a traditional hand-puppet stage, provide puppet guidance, musical accompaniment and plain-ol’ puppet comradery (with a hand-puppet of his own) to facilitate a spontaneous, highly improvised showcase of the unique puppet creations of the participants. 

The show will be followed by a picnic lunch, provided by the Library Friends of Cook County and Gene's Foods, and fun on the lawn! 

The puppet showcase, sponsored by Arrowhead Library System and developed by COMPAS, is funded in part or in whole with money from Minnesota's Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund (ACFH).
