At our wide range of online workshops, you create puppets working on your own schedule with regular live meetings on Zoom plus individual consultations. In our Advanced Workshops, you build everything from scratch over a period of 4-6 months. If you have less experience, you can order a unique Puppets in Prague puppet kit in advance.
At our shorter workshops, you can learn specific skills which you can apply to your own work such as moving eyes, toy theatre construction and automata. If you would like to consult with us, we offer individual online consultations.
