Writer and theater artist Lesley Alicia Tye will guide students through creating stories and characters with puppets. Taking inspiration from the local landscape and legends, students will design and construct their own puppets from everyday materials, and devise a story to share with friends and family. Monday through Wednesday will be creative days. Thursday, students will present their puppets live on stage!
This is a 4-day class meeting Monday - Thursday.
Ages: 7 – 10
If you have a child under 7 or over 10 who is interested, please call the office to inquire before registering. 231-256-2131
