UPDATE: In light of the fire events, and with student safety as our top priority, we postponed the Beginning Professional Puppet Building Workshop. The new dates are March 21, 22, and 23, 2025
Join us for a 3-day hands-on workshop that introduces several ways of creating a professional foam rubber puppet. You will get a comprehensive overview of "Muppet-style" puppet building covering different kinds of materials and techniques, including both rod-arm and live-hand designs. You will go step-by-step, tracing, cutting, gluing, and sewing (both by hand and using a sewing machine), and on the final day, have a new furry friend to take home.
The student must be at least 16 years old to enroll. Assistance using a sewing machine is available, but it helps if you're a crafty person.
Tuition includes materials.
