NOTE: THIS WILL BE THE LAST OF THE PUPPET PLAYGROUPS FOR GROWNUPS (at least for now).

Time to play with puppets! This isn't a workshop. It's just a place for grownups to bring their puppets and play. Maybe you're trying to figure out a character or a voice, or maybe you have a beloved puppet that wants to take the stage. Maybe you're still feeling shy about using puppets. All are welcome. Come and have fun!

First Saturday of the month, at 7:30 a.m. my time (US central time, same as Chicago). This means 8:30 p.m. in Singapore, 6:00 p.m. in India, 4:30 p.m. in UAE, 3:30 p.m. in Israel, Greece, Bulgaria, 2:30 p.m. in Belgium and 1:30 p.m. in the UK.

Register to attend (you only have to register once, then save the email that tells you how to log on).

FREE! If you want to sling me a little money via paypal or venmo (@Priscilla-Howe), that's great, but it's not why I'm doing this. I like building community.
