"Puppet Camp" is a free 1 day event to introduce 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 adults who are seriously interested in developing creative puppetry-based works in the North Portland area.

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.
