Explore the underground, obscure, experimental side of puppetry!
With three days of ways to join in, this event is a bit like a conference, a showcase, hands-on studio making and learning time with our visiting artists, and wraps up with a joyous procession of puppets large and small.
Our Sunday Stroll is free to join.
If you'd like to make a donation of any amount here, you will receive ticketing update emails as planning develops!
