  • Description

    This is a beginner’s introductory course exploring puppetry. You will make a variety of different types of puppets, developing characterisation and using a wide range of craft and found materials. Explore ways to express puppets’ personality and character in the design, through making ‘facial’ features, costumes, traditional/ modern techniques, materials and a lot of imagination.

    All basic & essential materials and equipment will be provided on the course, however participants should also start to collect any interesting found materials that they might like to incorporate. During the course participants may be asked to source ‘found’ materials.  While the workshop will allow ample time to complete the project, you may like to do some further work on your project at home as well, we would recommend also that participants bring with them a plain page notebook to keep ideas and personal notes. Suitable clothing should be worn; latex gloves will be provided as required.
