I’m excited to announce that the Art Reach of Mid Michigan will be hosting a Puppet Building Workshop on August 15 from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. The class is an excellent opportunity for anybody 12 years old and up who is interested either in building their own puppet as a craft, or is curious about the world of puppetry in general.
The workshop will be lead by a local puppet building professional named Tonya Huber. Tonya has 20 years of experience building puppets, and is very skilled at explaining the process in easy to understand terms. Attendees will be designing and creating puppets of a good enough quality that they could be used in live shows, the classroom, or on video.
Following the completion of the puppets, I will give everybody a quick lesson on how to bring their puppet to life using commonly applied puppetry techniques.
If this sounds interesting, I hope that you will check out the full class description on our website and consider enrolling.
