In this playful, hands-on class, students will design and create their own fancy sock puppet using basic hand sewing techniques and low-temperature glue guns. Once their puppet is complete, participants will bring their character to life by developing a unique voice, personality, and emotions.
Students will also explore beginner puppet performance techniques and have the chance to perform for fellow puppeteers using a puppet booth.
Participants will learn:
• Materials and techniques for creating a sock puppet
• Basic hand sewing and puppet-building skills
• How to develop a puppet’s voice and personality
• Introductory puppet performance techniques
