Celebrating the Arts: The Last Program

Mister Rogers arrives with various drawings of the Trolley made by some young Neighbors. Sharing the drawings, he notices the differences between each artist's work -- even though they were all drawing the same thing. After he talks about sharing creations with other people you care about, Mister Rogers thinks of many people showing love in different ways. Mr. McFeely arrives with a video compilation of different types of artists which he and Mister Rogers share on Picture-Picture. In the Neighborhood of Make-Believe, the arts festival is ready to begin as Betty Okonak Templeton is looking for Lady Elaine. At Corney's factore, Mayor Maggie is wearing a smock and cap she has made for the festival. She compliments Corney on his contribution to the festival -- an artistic rocking chair that rocks itself. At the castle, King Friday is dressed up in a special robe for the festival. Neighbor Aber is about to demonstrate his festival contribution when Betty Templeton arrives having found Lady Elaine. Promptly, Lady Elaine arrives at the castle with her own masterpiece -- a portrait of most everyone in the Neighborhood of Make-Believe. As judge of the festival, she awards first prize to all of the festival's entries including Neighbor Aber's contribution -- a Trolley attached to a parachute. Back at the house, Mister Rogers concludes by singing I'm Proud of You.
