Los tres cochinitos/The Three Little Pigs
Once upon a time three little pigs that used to lived in the forest. To escape from the big bad wolf each little pig decided to build a house. To work less and play more, the first little pig built a house of straw and the second little pig built his house of sticks. But, the third little pig that loved to read, decided to use his knowledge and built his house of bricks, so it would be stronger and windproof. The wolf came blowing with force and brought down the first house, then the second house. When the wolf tried to tear down the brick’s house, he could not because the clever little pig and his knowledge was the key to defeat the wolf. This story teaches us that everything is possible with dedication. Also, that we should give our best effort to help each other in solidarity under any difficulty can solve our problems more effectively.
About Story Time: Tales on Sugar Hill
Story Time: Tales on Sugar Hill is a series of curated programs that aim to provide children with a meaningful, interactive and fun art experience. Grounded in our curatorial mission to share stories through theater, music, dance and visual art, as well as oral and literary forms, Story Time presents tales, fables, histories, and myths that genuinely reflect the diverse ethnic and cultural milieu of our surroundings. Story Time also leverages the Museum's own art exhibitions to foster richer engagement with, and a deeper understanding of, public art already on view. Held every second Saturday of each month, each two-hour presentation includes a participatory art activity facilitated by teaching artists from the community, so children not only experience others’ stories, but also reflect on what they see and hear, and create and share their own stories.
