Join master puppeteer and artist Ted Talvitie for an afternoon of puppets, paint, imagination, and holiday fun. Ted will kick things off with a short puppet performance featuring some of his own creations before turning the workshop over to our young artists. Each child will start with a handmade character head created by Ted, then paint it, give it a personality, and build it into a one-of-a-kind stick puppet using fabric, clothing, hands, feet, and all kinds of fun little details. This will be a goofy, creepy, colorful, punk-rock puppet lab for kids. There are no examples to copy and no right way to make your character. Make a monster, a rock star, or a fancy pumpkin weirdo. Make something only you could think of. We&#39;ll provide everything kids need to create their puppet, and everyone will head home with their own original character. Tickets include the puppet performance, the handmade pumpkin-head puppet, all materials, and the guided workshop.&nbsp; Costumes are welcome. Creativity is highly encouraged. Weirdness is highly suggested. Refreshments Provided!&nbsp;
