New Lessons, workshops and performances are always being developed. Don't see what you want or need? Together we can develop a program to meet your needs.

All lessons are directly related to the common core and interactive, allowing students to experience the art of puppetry, storytelling, poetry and music while gaining knowledge in the core academic lesson. Lessons and residencies can be customized to fit your need. Each program and performance lasts about 45 mins.

When Lona Bartlett visits, it's as though we're transported to a magical place.  Time stops and students forget that they are learning.  Her lessons are engaging, inspiring, memorable, and fun.  Our students and staff always look forward to seeing Mrs. Bartlett.  Lona Bartlett has that special something that all artists share.  She is truly amazing!
