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.
Puppets are a wonderful way to tell stories, but where to start? Take it from Felicia, UConn Puppet Arts graduate student, how to put together stories that make sense. On Wednesday, August 12, we’ll go over some exercises, ways to think about structure, and inspiration exaltation! Recommended for ages 5+.
Materials needed: timer or watch, note cards, pen, and paper
This workshop is made possible with support from the Department of Economic and Community Development, Connecticut Office of the Arts.
