Shadow Puppetry Masters Monthly Accountability Circle

Our monthly progress circle is a space for those of us working with shadows to move our projects forward. Whether you are currently carving a new set of figures, troubleshooting a complex joint mechanism, or just trying to get a scene to block correctly, this meeting is designed to give you a dedicated time to focus. We spend the first part of the session sharing what we are working on and the specific hurdles we are facing, followed by quiet work time where we can support one another as we refine our craft.

This group is intended for experienced puppeteers and makers who are deep in the process of creating and performing shadow work. It is less about teaching the basics and more about maintaining momentum and sharing technical knowledge with peers who understand the unique challenges of the medium. We keep things informal and practical, focusing on the actual work at hand rather than just discussing theory.

If you are looking for a bit of structure to help you reach your goals this month, we would love to have you join us. Please RSVP if you plan to attend so we can keep an accurate headcount for the space.

We are getting together for our regular Newark Shadow Puppetry Mastery Accountability Circle to check in on our progress and share what we have been working on since last month. Whether you are currently drafting a script, experimenting with new lighting techniques, or trying to refine the mechanics of a specific puppet, this is a space to talk through your roadblocks and celebrate your recent breakthroughs. There is no pressure to have a finished performance; the goal is simply to stay consistent with our craft through mutual support and honest feedback.

This circle is open to anyone in the community who is actively developing a puppetry project and looking for a regular group to keep them on track. We find that having a set time to report on our goals makes the creative process feel much more manageable. If you have been needing a little extra structure or just want to connect with other local practitioners, we would love to have you join the conversation. Please RSVP if you can make it so we know how many chairs to set out.

We are getting together for our next Jersey City Shadow Puppetry Mastery Accountability Circle. This is a space for those of us working through the technical and creative hurdles of shadow puppetry to share our current projects, troubleshoot specific puppet mechanisms, and hold each other to the goals we have set for the month. Whether you are deep into the process of building a new rig or just trying to carve out consistent studio time, this group is here to help you move forward.

The session is informal and focused on peer support rather than formal instruction. We will spend the first part of the meeting checking in on our progress and discussing any roadblocks we have hit, followed by dedicated time to show work or workshop specific design challenges. It is a great way to stay connected with other local puppeteers and ensure your projects don't stay stalled on the workbench.

If you have been meaning to prioritize your practice and could use the company of fellow creators, I would love for you to join us. Please RSVP when you have a moment so I can get a sense of numbers for the space.

We are getting together for our next Yonkers Shadow Play Masters Accountability Circle. This is a space for those of us dedicated to the craft of shadow puppetry to step away from our private studios and share what we have been working on. Whether you are currently refining a complex performance piece, troubleshooting a mechanical issue with your puppets, or simply trying to stay consistent with your rehearsal schedule, this is a place to find focus and peer support.

The format is straightforward: we will spend the first part of the session checking in on our current projects and identifying the roadblocks we are facing. From there, we hold each other accountable for the goals we want to hit before we meet again next month. It is a quiet, steady environment designed for practitioners who want to move their work forward alongside others who understand the unique challenges of this medium.

If you have been feeling a bit isolated in your practice or just need that extra push to finish a project, we would love to have you join the conversation. Please RSVP if you can make it so we have a good sense of who is coming and can arrange the seating accordingly.
