Salford Mastering the Art of Marionettes

We are getting together in Salford for another session of Mastering the Art of Marionettes. Whether you have been building puppets for years or are just curious about how to bring these figures to life, this is a space to share techniques, troubleshoot mechanism issues, and work on your craft alongside other enthusiasts. We will have a few stations set up for stringing and balancing, so feel free to bring a project you are currently working on or just come by to observe and chat about the process.

This group is all about the hands-on side of things and learning from one another in a relaxed environment. There is no pressure to have a finished masterpiece; we are really just looking to build a local community of people who enjoy the technical and creative challenges of marionette work. If you have been looking for an excuse to get your puppets out of the workshop or want to meet some fellow string pullers in the area, we would love to see you there.

If you think you can make it, please let us know by RSVPing so we have a rough idea of how many tables we need to clear for workspace.
