The Puppeteers Cooperative is returning to The Old Stone House with its annual puppet protest comedia, The Right of Spring, focusing this year on the plight and adventures of the insect world. Artist/puppeteer Theresa Linnihan leads a workshop to paint bee and ladybug wearable hats and then and rehearse with them in preparation for the parade and pageant. 

SCHEDULE

1pm - 2pm PUPPET BUILDING TIME!
Design and paint your wearable-buggy critters.

2pm - 3pm Rehearse with your puppet!

Anyone who builds and performs with a puppet owns that puppet!
