Art/Lab Workshop: Creativity, Breath and Jewish Wisdom (Puppetry)

In this hands-on introductory puppetry workshop, participants will practice bringing tabletop puppets and objects to life. We will experiment with developing short puppetry works that grow out of the themes of Jewish texts. No theater or puppetry experience required.
