All workshops will take place at the Cherry Valley Old School, 2 Genesee Street, Cherry Valley, NY, outdoors or indoors, weather permitting.

The Puppet Workshop will include elements and inspirations from the whole course of the Telegraph’s programming over the summer. This includes music, dancing, and writing inspired by Cherry Valley’s beautiful waterways. This workshop will be a 4 hour puppet intensive resulting in puppets and stories to showcase at the end of summer festival.

The class will review a super brief history of puppeteering, some favorite puppeteers and their techniques, and some demonstrations of common puppet techniques to arm you with inspiration and methods when creating your puppets. There will be many unique materials available but in the spirit of recycling, we ask that you bring any interesting objects or materials you’d like to turn into a puppet!
