SFSC Hosts Free Puppet Theater Performance and Workshops for Local Families

The South Florida State College (SFSC) is set to host a free performance by the Bits n Pieces Puppet Theater. This group is committed to engaging children with theatrical versions of classic children's stories. Cindy Garren, the director of cultural programs at SFSC, described the event as a fun, free family activity.

SFSC is also providing free puppet-making workshops at three local libraries. Hollie Rubin of Bits n Pieces Puppet Theater will lead these workshops. Children will get the chance to perform a puppet show. The workshops will take place at Hardee County Library in Wauchula on April 23 at 4 p.m., Sebring Library on April 24 at 11 a.m., and Avon Park Library on April 24 at 4 p.m.

Participants should call the library beforehand to register and ensure availability of puppet-making materials. The workshops, funded by a grant from South Arts, are suitable for children in grades 1–3.

The Bits n Pieces Puppet Theatre is recognized for its unique storytelling approach, highlighting core values often conveyed by great storytellers. The group's goal is to engage the children of today through storytelling.
