We run puppetry and puppet-making workshops for community groups, individuals of all ages and schools.
A large part of our work focuses on fostering an interest in the natural environment. We are currently planning a series of outdoor workshops for budding puppeteers of all ages, which will involve foraging for natural materials, making a puppet and exploring stories with your puppet.
If you are interested in booking a workshop for yourself or your organisation, get in touch with us via the ‘Contact us’ page and we can have a chat about your requirements.
