While the Ballard Institute is closed, the museum will offer short, puppet-building and craft workshops via Facebook Live (http://facebook.com/BallardInstitute/) every Wednesday and Friday at 2 p.m. ET!
All past workshops are available on our Facebook and YouTube.
Join us on June 12 to Make a Puppet of Your Pet with Elise Vanase! Do you love your pets as much as we do? Come make a rod puppet of one of them! Recommended for ages 7+.
Materials needed: newspaper, masking tape, paint, yarn or string, 3 one-foot-long sticks (chopsticks, skewers, unused pencils, or even straws will all work!)
