The Puppet Master: Kinetic Sculpture & Performance

Ages: 6+

Description: Art in motion! In this dynamic workshop, students build unique marionettes and puppets. We focus on the mechanics of movement—how to make a sculpture walk, talk, and dance. The large-scale foam materials are lightweight and easy to manipulate, making this a perfect course for ages 6+ to explore engineering and performance art simultaneously.

• What They’ll Learn: Kinetic engineering (movement), foam sculpting, character design, and basic performance skills.

• What They’ll Take Home: A large-scale, fully functional marionette or foam hand puppet.
