FULL MOON PUPPET SHOW WORKSHOP: Mutual Aid Large Scale Puppet Community Build
Full Moon Puppet Show is offering two open community workshop sessions designed by teaching artist Christopher Lutter Full Moon Mutual Aid Lead Staff to give participants a hands-on understanding of how to design and build large-scale puppets and/or pageant puppets, while combining the power of visual art with community activism.
Working alongside Mutual Aid Lead Artists, participants will help to complete a large-scale puppet and learn about the efforts of Spill Paint Not Oil. These workshops will be in-person at Big Animal Productions.
What is Mutual Aid? Full Moon’s Mutual Aid workshops partner with a social justice organization to design a puppet(s) that will help in their efforts to create change. The puppet is designed with input from the partner organization, an experienced teaching artist and three Full Moon lead artists. Open Community Workshops teach participants about the design process while completing the final steps. The puppet is then donating to the partner organization for their future use.
Enrollment is sliding scale/free. Sign up for a single workshop or come to both. Your donation helps support this Full Moon Puppet Show Mutual Aid Workshop.
