Hello puppetry friends! The Boston Area Guild of Puppetry had a busy year in 2023, and we’re looking forward to more events in 2024. We had a couple of great virtual meetings in November and January, where we shared puppet projects that everyone is working on. We also had a fun “puppet election” for president of Puppetopia, with puppets competing for votes.
Every year our activities are determined by our members. If you’re not a member yet, we encourage you to join our fun group. Members receive our newsletter every other month, along with notices of puppet events and festivals around New England and beyond.
You also become eligible to apply for puppetry scholarships to attend festivals, and small grants for new works. You can also get a free listing on our website to promote your work. Our yearly member dues are on a sliding scale, so you pay what you can. Learn more about membership here.
Our next guild meeting and program will be announced soon, hope to see you there!
— John Lechner, President
