Fairies And Monsters Puppet Making Workshop

Every monster needs a fairy .. and every fairy needs a monster! What will yours look like?

Using an array of materials and some expert guidance, create a magical character to take home.

Children’s Workshops

For children aged 5 and over.

Each session is themed to a particular type of puppet - from rod puppet to marionette, Bunraku, glove and many more besides. Further information about each workshop can be found on our What’s On page.

After constructing the basic puppet form, your child will be free to create the puppet’s character using the vast array of materials provided. The only restriction will be their imagination and at the end they will have a wonderful puppet to take home!

Please note: during these sessions the child will be working with their peers, supported by our workshop leaders. Accompanying adults may either remain in our foyer and enjoy a cup of tea or coffee or return to collect the child at the end of the workshop.

Workshops last for 1½ hours with a short break midway for a snack or a drink. These can be purchased from our shop or you can bring your own.
