Everything is Puppets! An Intro to Puppetry & Found Object

SUNDAY, MAY 31 @ 6PM - 8PM CT (with optional Q&A @ 8pm - 9pm CT)

VIRTUAL WORKSHOP: Everything is Puppets!
An Intro to Puppetry & Found Object

EVERYTHING IS PUPPETS! Your wallet? PUPPET. Coffee cup? PUPPET? Computer mouse? DEFINITELY A PUPPET. If you've ever wondered how puppeteers come up with their wildest ideas or ever wanted to learn the foundational skills to animate a puppet, this is the workshop for you. Using objects found in your home we will explore what a puppet can be and how you bring it to LIFE.

This virtual workshop is for those with no experience in puppetry, movement artists looking for a fresh perspective, folks who want to recapture their sense of play, and everyone in between! The workshop will be followed by an optional Q&A discussion with our instructor. Register below!
