Winter’s Gift

presented by

Leslie Silberkleit & Kendra Ranelli

based on the book written and illustrated by Jane Monroe Donovan

Saturday afternoon, March 1, 2 pm

In the Gallery

Leslie and Kendra bring their beautifully handcrafted puppets and props to present a marvellous treat for both children and adults — A puppet show based on the beautiful book, Winter’s Gift, by Jane Monroe Donovan.

This charming story takes place on a small farm during the holiday season. As a result of an unexpected snowstorm. Mother Nature brings together two unlikely hearts who both need comfort, companionship, love, and the delightful gift of hope.

The puppet show will be accompanied by storytelling from the book and will be followed by a craft-making session for children with Leslie and Kendra. The children will then deploy their creations to stage their own puppet show to conclude the event.

All welcome!
