June’s Drop-in Workshop for Families is inspired by puppetry and celebrates Pride Month! Puppetry has been a staple in filmmaking for iconic characters like the Muppets, variations of the story of Pinocchio, and is often featured in stop-motion animation. 

Workshop participants design and create their own puppet with a unique look and personality to celebrate the themes of pride, which include loving and embracing each other’s differences.

Guests can join the workshop anytime from 12:30pm to 2:30pm in the Shirley Temple Education Studio on the museum’s Lower Level. 

Museum admission is free for youth ages 17 and under.

The Education team invites families to join museum educators every month to be inspired by the museum’s exhibitions and screenings to create, learn, and have fun!
