Let's Make a Puppet!

Description

In this workshop, students will create their own flapping fish puppets. These large, dynamic puppets are a perfect introduction to the art of parade puppetry. Students will learn foundational skills like finding the center of gravity and creating simple joints, as well as expressing their creative side through unique design elements. Everyone is welcome and no experience is necessary!

Eva Adderly is a multi-media artist with a special love of puppetry, interactive installation art, and community art festivals. She has worked with many arts and theater organizations around Minneapolis, including Barebones Puppets, Art Shanty Projects, Northern Sparks, Open Eye Figure Theater, and The Phoenix Theater. Some of her favorite creations are a firebird made of actual fire and a twenty three foot long glowing dragon skeleton.
