Free and Open to the Public

withSinger/Songwriter Jan Nigro

Children of all ages will enjoy these animated short films, presented by local singer/songwriter Jan Nigro! In Miss Twiggley's Tree, a woman lives an odd life with her friends the animals, and is considered peculiar by the townsfolk. But when a flood comes, it's Miss Twiggley's good nature and her treehouse that saves the day. A sick iguana leads a young girl into the rainforests in search of a cure in Ana in the Rainforest. Two children wonder where all the birds have gone in Songbird Story, and track down the root of the problem, as they see the birds' migratory homes being overly developed. And in The Boy and the Snow Goose, a child protects and cares for an injured wild goose, and a friendship develops. Through the program, Jan Nigro will complement the films with his trademark song stylings.
