Learn different styles of puppetry! Create paper puppets, simple marionettes, masks, and more. In this class, we will invent, design, build, and bring to life puppet characters from our imaginations. We will use paper, cardboard, yarn, string, and paint to build tabletop puppets as well as toy theaters and stages for our characters to come to life.
