Celebrate 30 years of extraordinary puppetry at the 13th annual Puppets in the Green Mountains, presented by Sandglass Theater. This international festival of performance, dialogue, and special events honors the transformative power of puppet theater to deepen empathy, spark imagination, and celebrate the human spirit.
The 2026 theme, “Endings, Beginnings and the Humanity In Between,” brings together acclaimed artists from around the world for visually stunning, thought-provoking works exploring renewal, resilience, and what it means to be human in a fractured age. Featuring performances, a VR exhibition, public conversations, and artist workshops, the festival invites audiences into mythic storytelling, bold innovation, and playful inquiry.
Join us in Southern Vermont for five days of art, community, and imagination in the Green Mountains.
