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.
Who said you shouldn’t play with your food? Join UConn Puppet Arts senior Elise Vanase on July 31 to make some puppets you can take a chomp out of! Recommended for ages 6+.
Materials needed: apple, banana, toothpicks, Twizzlers, pretzel rods, string cheese, butter/carving knife, OR whatever food strikes your inspiration!
