Marionette Puppet Camp 6/23- 6/27

Come learn how to make your very own marionette puppet! This particular summer camp is a special one, as you will use your imagination and learn skills that can entertain you (and others) for hours on end. We will spend five days creating a character, making a storyboard, forming the different pieces of our character, shaping, painting, and bringing life to our visions! We will learn how to use tools, manipulate wire, paint, assemble and  create accessories and props, for our puppets. We will work with others and create storylines for our final day when we put on puppet shows and record each other to share with our group.

We work with a variety of materials such as paper, metal, tape, glue, paint, yarn and more to learn how to bring our visions to life.  We interact with each other to participate in a creative community and learn from each other.

Camp is from 9am till 3pm. All supplies and tools are provided. Light snacks are provided. We will take intermittent breaks and visit the park in the neighborhood as a form of recess from our activities. Lunch is NOT provided, please bring lunch and water. On the last day we walk to the Linda Mar Shopping Center where campers can use their own money to get a snack or beverage as we finish up camp and reflect on what we've learned. 

Camp is designed for kids ages 9-14. Exceptions have been made for students who are focused and self motivated to learn.

Camp is hosted by Pacifica artist, Taryn McCabe, at her studio in Pacifica, Ca. Once you sign up you will receive an email with more information about the address along with a form for you to fill out so Taryn can learn more about your camper.
