12 noon - 3pm
Gazebo at Welles Park 2333 W. Sunnyside Ave. Chicago, IL 60625

PIPs is an informal gathering for testing out new puppet and object-based performances. Bring whatever you’re working on and get encouragement and feedback from other puppet-folks! This PiPs will occur in the park so come ready to enjoy the fresh air at the Gazebo at Welles Park.

Are you new to puppetry and want a low-stakes way to test the waters? Are you an old hand with a new project? Are you a dancer, comics artist, performance poet, teacher, lifeguard, or engineer just curious about what puppetry looks like today?

Everyone is welcome! Bring a project, no matter how rough, or just come for the conversation. Snacks and supportive people will be provided!

We’ll be meeting at the Gazebo located within Welles Park.
