Project Overview

We will be bringing Blue Horse theatre, which is a group of women that came together with a mission to promote a deeper understanding of what horse communication is through art, dance, theatre and horsemanship. They showcase interactive equine experiences to bring forth a more creative and peaceful world.

Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Blue horse will be doing shows during our Daycare and Senior Day. This day tends to be one of our busiest days at the fair. We will have a volunteer and a photographer at each performance monitoring the number of people watching each show and photographing the performance and the audience. We have this group perform at our fair in the past and it always seems to draw a big crowd. People get to take away the beauty of the dance movements and the artistry and training that it takes to get an animal to trust and perform.
