Wildland Roots

This is our second free ❝Puppet Camp❞ to introduce folks (18+) to foundational puppetry techniques and different puppetry styles with the goal of forming a small puppetry troupe, as well as to recruit puppeteers for future Wildland Roots processional art and performance projects.

We are delighted once again to have Adam Ende of Jawbone Puppet Theater in Seattle, and Tim Giugni of the Puppetry Guild of Portland join us as instructors!

>>>> Also be sure to check out our other September 19-20 "Puppet Weekend" activities, including the Saturday evening program ❝Puppet Night! (for grown-ups)❞ featuring performances by Adam, Tim, Moni and others, and two different Sunday afternoon puppet-making workshops, all at Green Anchors. Registration and detailed info coming soon! <<<<

This is our second year of ❝Puppet Camp❞, and we hope to offer it again with each iteration becoming more in depth as we develop our puppetry skill-sets and puppet library, as well as connections to folks we can invite in as guest instructors.

We offer ❝Puppet Camp❞ for free as we believe that puppetry is a skill that should be accessible to anyone regardless of their financial situation. That said, we happily accept donations from those who can afford to help us cover the costs of producing the event.

Why is this ❝Puppet Camp❞ for grown-ups? Because puppetry is more typically available for (or aimed towards) children, yet there are many adults out there who have long wanted their very own chance to explore puppetry.
