Handcrafted Puppets with J Hann

Fri, Oct 13, 2023

Join us for a puppet-making workshop with puppeteer and fiber artist J Hann. Drawing inspiration from the uncanny puppet characters now on view in Shary Boyle: Outside the Palace of Me, workshop participants will create hand puppets out of foam, textiles, and odds and ends. 

This workshop is for ages 10 and up. All skill levels are welcome.
