"Puppet Camp" is a free 1 day event to introduce grown-up folks to several different styles of puppetry with the goal of learning, having fun, making connections, and maybe even forming a small puppet troupe. We'll also be recruiting folks to perform giant pageant-style puppets at All Souls and local parades and processions.
We're specifically looking for folks who are seriously interested in developing creative puppetry-based works in the North Portland area.

10 am-12 noon
Meet at the Green Anchors pavilion where we will have several stations set up with different puppetry styles including shadow puppetry, found object puppets, and direct manipulation puppets. Participants will receive a brief intro to the different styles and techniques, then will have time at each station to explore and practice.
12 noon - 1pm
Lunch break
1 pm-3 pm
Meet at the Green Anchors pavilion where we will have two stations set up: standard sized rod puppets and giant backpack mounted puppets (which are also technically rod puppets). For the giant puppets, participants will receive coaching on how to put on, wear, perform with, and safely dismount the puppets.
This is our very first Day of Puppets event, but we plan to do it again with each year's iteration becoming more in depth as we develop our puppetry skill-sets and puppet library, and our connections to folks to feature as guest instructors and performers.
