"Muppet, Music & Magic" Events

[MelissaY1]

So, the one in Huntington. Three days, tons of special guests, Henson film rarities...sounds a bit like a less life-altering second Muppetfest to me. Yay!

If it's anything like the BAM event from a couple of years ago, or the event I attended at the Museum of T.V. and Radio in NYC a few years back, it's going to be awesome!

Updated info!

So according to this link: http://www.cinemaartscentre.org/may07/documents/PuppetsontheSoundFullSchedule.pdf

There is updated information regarding the Henson and puppetry related events around the area during that weekend. Of course though one disadvantage to having info online, is that the rest of the schedule says "turn to page 23" and there is none LOL However I have a friend who goes out to Huntington every Saturday (he keeps a horse out there) so I'll tell him to pick a brochure up for me that they usually have in the train station over there....Unless I get out there myself beforehand which is also possible

You're welcome everybody. I try to earn my keep here I guess I'm also real excited there's going to be a Muppet event on Long Island for once instead of NYC (either way I gotta take the train somewhere but nice to have things local!)

Yes, I actually checked it out on their website (it was recently updated). I have a friend going out there this weekend and told him to pick one up for me. If not I should be there in the near future myself as well....thank you though!
