Q. What might be a once in lifetime experience?
A. In my opinion, the WiseFool workshop.
KidzPost Info:
WiseFool New Mexico is a troupe of actors and acrobats from, you guessed it, New Mexico! On their website they say their mission is to “…ignite imagination, build community, and promote social justice through performances and hands on experiences in the arts of circus, puppetry and theatre.” You can check out a short video clip of one of their performances on the Festival of the Arts website under “Videos.”
Hi Kids:
Are you tired of school? Would you like to kick off your summer with free, fun and fabulous activities? It’s as close as the Lakefront and runs June 10 through June 25.
So what are we talking about?
We are talking about the 24th annual Columbia Festival of the Arts.
As you may know the Festival of the Arts is a big multi- event extravaganza held in downtown Columbia in June every year, where the whole town is invited to explore new adventures and performances.
To find out what will be available this year, check out the interview below, courtesy of Mary Ann Knab from Epoch 3 Marketing, LLC.
