Written and directed by Jon Ludwig, Artistic Director
2009-10 Family Series

The Center for Puppetry Arts is committed to bringing attention to issues affecting the world's children. Combining the art of puppetry with serious issues, the Center uses performances, workshops, and exhibits to help focus upon the issue in a manner that children find both fun and understandable.

This year, the Center is proud to be working with the Aetna Foundation to produces Adventures of Little Noodle, a new show focused on the issues surrounding childhood obesity by our Artistic Director, Jon Ludwig.This show is being presented as part of our Healthy Children/Prevent Childhood Obesity Initiative.

The Center does not believe in a set methodology, diet regime, or exercise plan; instead, as leading research indicates, the Center endorses having an active lifestyle, making wise food choices, and having a positive self-image regardless of body shape.

While you are at the Center, please visit our information table, where you can pick up additional materials and health resources provided by our community partners. Check this webpage often for added special events and upcoming activities through the fall.
