Owl Moon: An Evening Adventure
A shadow puppet performance of the children’s picture book “Owl Moon” shows how light and silhouette can set the mood and tell a story. Instead of focusing on details, shadow puppetry uses contrast and movement to help viewers focus on shapes and motion. After the story, taking a moonlit walk lets families compare the scenes they imagined with the real winter woods while listening for owls in the forests of Arcadia Wildlife Sanctuary. This family event connects literature and visual arts with nature-based learning.
