artfarm presents The Bread & Puppet Theater in Lexington, KY at Greyline Station!! Join us for The Upside Down Circus!

“Is it or is it not?
Am I asleep or am I awake?
Am I a cockroach or am I a me?
Possibilitarians! We must demonstrate humanity’s upside-down situation in the face of the government’s depraved falsehoods. Luxury silence and despair must be replaced by revolt orchestras that radically oppose the radically wrong system.
It is time to unforget the revolution-in-progress and aim for the evermore on the universe’s shore.”

The one and only Bread & Puppet Circus is back to confront our upside-down situation! With stilt dancers, paper maché beasts of all sizes, and a riotous brass band, The Upside Down World Circus is an urgent spectacle of protest and celebration.

After each show Bread & Puppet will serve its famous sourdough rye bread with aioli, and “Cheap Art” – books, posters, postcards, pamphlets and banners from the Bread & Puppet Press – will be for sale.

On Thursday, October 29th, the Office of the Fayette County Sheriff will host the 10th Annual “Rise Up: A Tribute to Survivors,” Community Domestic Violence Candlelight Vigil. The event is held annually in the month of October during Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Rise Up will bring together community partners and survivors of domestic violence to continue our pursuit to end domestic violence in Lexington.

The event includes a resource fair with community partners, as well as a speaking program with community leaders and survivors of domestic violence. Throughout the event light refreshments will be served and family activities are available. Community members who have survived domestic violence are invited to speak during the open mic portion to tell their own stories. Finally, candles will be lit as a community to honor the victims and survivors of domestic violence.

An immersive, three-day workshop focused entirely on butchery, curing, and charcuterie.

This workshop begins where the animal becomes food.

Over three days, we will guide you through the breakdown of a whole pig and the transformation of its parts into traditional charcuterie—from whole-muscle cures to salami, pâté, and potted meats.

This is a hands-on experience designed for those who want to move beyond theory and develop real, working skill.

Limited to just 10 participants, the class is intentionally small to allow for direct instruction and meaningful participation.

All meals are included and built around the work we do together. If you would like to pay in cash or check and receive a $25 discount, just contact us directly.
