Hear ye! Hear ye! Bread & Puppet will host our traditional Museum Opening on Sunday, May 31, 2026. As always, this celebratory afternoon of performances, bread, and museum appreciation will mark the beginning of a bustling summer season at the Bread & Puppet farm. The day will begin at the entrance of our Museum, where local singers will gather to sing songs in the “Shape Note” tradition, an early American sacred singing tradition with deep roots in Vermont, in four-part harmony. Next, the Museum will receive its ceremonial opening for the season: the museum guard will be woken up and reinstalled at his post for the summer. The public will be invited to peruse the museum.
In keeping with tradition, the middle of the afternoon will feature performances by B&P friends and guests with music and short puppet shows at locations around the B&P farm. The afternoon will conclude with a brand-new Bread & Puppet show in the Paper Maché Cathedral!
After the show Bread & Puppet will serve its famous sourdough rye bread with aioli, and Bread & Puppet’s “Cheap Art” – books, posters, postcards, pamphlets and banners from the Bread & Puppet Press – will be for sale.
Please note that dogs are not permitted in the Museum or Paper Maché Cathedral.
Tickets: $15, no one turned away for lack of funds. Admission by donation upon arrival for kids 12 and under.
