Art in Abundance

 Saturday May 14th I taught I puppet making class to families at the Weeksville Heritage Center in Brooklyn for their Art in Abundance Celebration. What I love about jointed puppets is that you can also create stop motion movies. You can find free stop motion applications that can be downloaded on phones and pads in app stores. Puppets encourage storytelling and can be fun ways to practice reading and writing. 

I love watching families make art together. It's almost magical how art making can make people realize how creative they are when they just let go and create.
