CAMPS



Winter Camp




Break out of the February gloom and join us for fantastic fun with puppets and art! At this theater arts camp, children will explore characters, images and themes, improvise and create puppets for a performance based on the stories that unfold.

PUPPETRY

EDUCATION



In Class Workshops




Open Hand Theater designs creative arts education projects that integrate performance, music, puppetry and visual arts into classroom studies. As working artists and performers we focus on the character, the story, the tune and the little details that make learning relevant to children.



Traveling Theater




Open Hand Theater brings great performances and innovative educational workshops to schools, community events, and festivals. Performances are targeted to specific grade levels, curriculum areas and learning standards.
