The Snowflake Man Puppet Show with Puppet Kabob (A Vermont Reads Family Event)

  • St. Johnsbury Athenaeum 1171 Main Street St. Johnsbury, VT, 05819 United States (map)

The story of The Snowflake Man is inspired by Wilson "Snowflake" Bentley, the self-educated farmer and scientist who attracted world attention when he became the first person to photograph a single snow crystal. 

The Snowflake Man swings audiences into the historic 1920s through creative storytelling, intricately designed Czech-style marionettes, and a striking pop-up book of water color scenery. This UNIMA-USA award winning show combines art, science, and a little known piece of American history to magical effect! 

What people are saying about "The Snowflake Man"

“The incredible attention to detail, both visually and in her performance style, demonstrates Sarah's mastery of storytelling in this charming show!”     
- UNIMA-USA

“One might think that young children would prefer puppets that are loud and flashy, but they were enraptured with Sarah's story and her marionettes.”
- Philadelphia Museum of Art
