Vetted Programs: Norm Barnhart
Emphasize the importance of performing arts in the local community. Increase access to the performing arts, enhancing audience comfort and confidence with magic and humor. Encourage further education and attendance at future performing arts events.
Reinforce the idea that libraries are places to experience cultural or arts programming.
Over half of the children in attendance had seen a magic show before. Once the show was over, every child wanted to learn more about magic! A clear majority of the adults surveyed indicated they most enjoyed watching how the children got involved in the show. It was fun for all ages.
High quality, very fun, he engaged the audience very well.
"We had a blast just watching the kid's reactions"
"He's really fun for all ages" All VERY positive. "Loved how he included reading and library promotion in his show."
