Puppet Shows, Workshops, and More!
We offer an exciting roster of interactive, 25 minute puppet shows for all ages. Every show is followed up with a “meet and greet” where kids are encouraged to see the puppets up close and learn how they are made. All puppets are made from recycled materials, like cardboard and bike tubes!
Please check out our Calendar for public shows and workshops. Contact us for more information about booking a show, workshop or our Rent-A-Spectacle puppets. Email info@mudeyepuppets.org or Call 503-805-0291.
