Join Stacey Gordon for an introduction to puppetry. In the class you’ll learn about how to bring simple puppets to life and work your way to moving-mouth puppets. You’ll learn about lip sync, how to explore senses and emotions with puppetry, and how to effectively connect with your audience.

Already know a little? Then we'll not only reinforce the basics, but also give you the practice you need to build confidence in your performances!
— but with a whole lot of joy and fun because PUPPETS!

**This workshop is intended for adult participants and is perfect for beginning puppeteers, librarians, teachers, play therapists, youth leadership, or anyone who just wants to learn new skills and add to their puppeteering toolbox.

What to Bring:
Yourself! All practice puppets will be provided
