“Blues, Blues” takes the public stage for the first time in over a decade, since it last performed in Taiwan, Turkey, Bulgaria, Turkey and the Czech Republic!

We are scheduled at the ShowBox @thebatterynyc this Sunday, October 4, 2026 at 10:30am & 12:30pm.

Since this is an outdoor venue, we will keep an eye out for the weather.

We will hope for the best!

Excited to be a part of the Hartford Performs Teaching Artist roster for the 2026/27 school year!

We are happy to bring back “Exploring Our World of Senses!” since it was the top booked program last school year via @hartfordperforms during the year we piloted this program for Grades PrK & K. This year we are booking this program in Grade 1 as well to get everyone singing, dancing, sharing and caring for each other and the world around us via the art of puppetry.

Happy Arts in Education Week!

#HartfordPerforms #HartfordPublicSchools #TeachingArtist #ArtEducation

Thank you for helping us build excitement for another inspiring school year of art integration in HPS this school year! We love Hartford!
