Insect Tales: Phinni and the Wild Patch

Friday, August 211:00 AM—12:00 PMMeeting Hall A
Meeting Hall B

This musical, interactive puppet show tells the tale of four insects as they search for a new home.

Using table-top puppets, author/illustrator John Lechner tells the story of a hoverfly named Phinni, who shares a meadow with a long-legged fly, a ground beetle, and a butterfly.

But when a storm washes away their home, they must search far and wide for a new one, all while avoiding the giant praying mantis!

Designed for all ages, the puppet show weaves together facts about insects and their lives, and helps build empathy and awareness for these small but vital players in our ecosystem.

The characters in the show are all inspired by insects found locally, which children might see in their own neighborhood.

Recommended for children ages 2-5. Registration required, as space is limited.

Puppet show will run approx. 30 mins, with time for questions at the end.
