Read MoreOn Thursday July 25, Rolie Polie Guacamole will be rockin’ and rollin’ their way to Easton to perform a morning concert as a part of The Children Museum in Easton’s Music Drop-in Day. Join us at 10am to kick off a full day of dancing and singing!
Frank Gallo, Andrew Tuzhilin, and Peter Barr join together to form this quirky band with a silly name. Rolie Polie Guacamole is a Brooklyn based “kindie” band singing and playing original tunes that promote natural living, eating healthy, and staying active. Kids will have a blast grooving to a mix of funk, rock, and folk music with a positive message. Rolie Polie Guacamole shows are high energy and highly interactive: your kids won’t find a dull moment!
After the concert the Children’s Museum has exciting activities planned for your children including an interactive performance and parade with Ollie and Bianca from 12-2pm.
This program will be sponsored by Roche Bros.

Read More"Under Night Sky" follows three children on journeys united by threads of courage, love and hope. Unravel the stories of the Underground Railroad stitched together in Grandmother's patchwork quilt. Hear the waves crash aside the ship as you listen to the magical tale of an Irish Memory Quilt. Quietly enter an Old School House to see a girl proudly wearing her coat of rags, stitched to patchwork perfection.
Puppetkabob artist Sarah Frechette revolutionizes the ancient art of shadow puppetry by using light to manipulate depth and space. "Under Night Sky" is a show that blends hand-held lights, illustrated paper puppets, composed music, and character storytelling to create a style of cinematic puppetry that flows like film.
