About the Event
In celebration of the 7th Annual Bob Baker Day, Metro Art Presents collaborated with the world-renowned Los Angeles puppetry organization, Bob Baker Marionette Theater, on a virtual premiere featuring its beloved puppets performing throughout historic Union Station.
The imaginative celebration of Bob Baker’s birthday features the popular marionettes who have entertained generations of Angelenos as they explore, dance and even roller skate through the station while delivering fun for all ages through an online carnival of inspiration and creativity.
“I remember riding the Red Car all over the city as a kid … I love the current light rail system and take the subway whenever I can. I like to people watch.” -Bob Baker
