HEADLINE ACT
TOM CURTAIN’S “KATHERINE OUTDOOR EXPERIENCE”
We’ve got working dogs, working horses and now working goats – yes, you read that right…goats! Tom has somehow managed to turn these mischievous creatures into unsung heroes. A choreographed performance that puts your two left feet to shame, and all led by a pack of dogs that have better moves than your uncle bob at a wedding.
This show is extremely entertaining, highly interactive, family-oriented, and the skills on display are simply awe-inspiring. We’re not sure who will love it more. The kids or you!

Experience the Magic of Miniature Ponies with KIDS Foundation's Equine Program
KIDS FOUNDATION
Our unique program brings together educators from the KIDS Foundation and an equine specialist, introducing Carm and Eleven Eleven, our adorable miniature ponies to kindergartens.
Children learn how to safely interact and connect with horses while gaining insight into emotional communication through our equine-based approach. Aligned with our books, “SeeMore and Carm” and “SeeMore Kindness”, this program helps children develop self-awareness and empathy. Horses, by their nature, seek harmony with humans, often bringing strong emotions to the surface and our miniature ponies provide an educational experience, promoting emotional well-being.
Join us at Equitana, where Carm and Eleven Eleven will be ready to engage with both children and adults! Come along for a hands-on opportunity to pat, brush, and even decorate their manes with bows.
Don’t miss this chance to connect with our beloved equine ambassadors to learn more about the KIDS Foundation via our Education and Trauma and Injury Recovery Programs. Plus learn about our unique fundraising initiative Tour d’Horse to keep us delivering these incredible life-changing programs.
