About The Event

We hope you can join us for this very special family-friendly program. With puppets designed by Ian Petroni, an animal-inspired score of Baroque music assembled by Les Délices director Debra Nagy, and a narrative by Ohio poet laureate Dave Lucas, the Aesop Project delights, inspires, and offers food for thought. Soprano Elena Mullins is featured alongside a stellar ensemble of Baroque violin, viola da gamba, oboe, recorder, and harpsichord. Art making begins at 10:30 a.m., and the musical performance follows at 11:30 a.m.

Featured Musicians
Elena Mullins Bailey, soprano
Debra Nagy, oboe
Shelby Yamin, violin
Rebecca Landell, cello
