Bread and Puppet is one of the oldest running political theater groups in the United States. While the concept of running a theater with a message began in New York City, it officially moved to a former farm in Glover, Vermont, in 1974. Nowadays, the Bread and Puppet theater travels within the United States and abroad to perform for diverse audiences. Therefore when you go to the museum, you’ll get to see many of the puppets used for these shows and other events that the company has put on over the years. At this unique museum in Vermont, you’ll also be able to check out unique paintings and masks that have previously been used for performance art, too.

This is an example of some of the larger-than-life art pieces you’ll find at the Bread and Puppet’s Theater museum.
