THE STONE SOUP CURRICULUM:
A CELEBRATION of TOLERANCE, DIVERSITY and SHARING

Each visit can be divided into weekly or daylong sessions or shorter classes that last a semester (schools, camps, youth at risk, detention)

Approximately 20 hrs. of curriculum
Can be adjusted to meet the needs of organizations
Meets Massachusetts standards in Language Arts and High School Theater

       About the facilitator:
      Jean Minuchin runs The World and Eye Arts Center, which produces hands-on workshops and   programming focusing on social issues through the arts. Jean has 20 + years in arts education in schools and community. She ran a middle school theater program, trainings for clown care in hospitals, directed intergenerational arts programs and developed school-based arts for literacy curricula. 

​
As a performance artist, Jean uses her degrees in arts and theater to cultivate a hybrid form of visual theater. Recent plays written, performed and toured by Jean include “Beneath the Hood” a solo mask play exploring the role of outcasts in a fictional community and “Odyssey in the Land of Shadows” a puppet play about the nature of grief and healing. She has performed at two NYU Forums, WaxWorks in Brooklyn, NY, at the National Puppetry Fringe Festival 2013 and at THE NERVE performance art festival in Fort Lauderdale. Jean’s solo performance, “Still Life of an Orange and Other Puppet Parables” appeared in the Hollywood Fringe Festival in California.
