The Giant Puppet camp will offer children an adventure in creativity, myth creation, collaboration, and celebration. Campers will collectively imagine a story and a world of characters for an end-of-camp pageant parade. Children will learn techniques in building giant individual puppets and group puppets using paper mache, cardboard, paint, and fabric. Movement exploration, community-building games, and puppeteering practice will help students’ puppets come to life. Led by veteran Teaching Artist Jennifer Sargent, creative exploration will emphasize process and student-centered imagination. At the end of camp, families will be invited to witness a celebratory pageant procession around the community center.
