Handmade Puppet Dreams

Aircraft Carriers AND Puppets! It's not too good to be true, it's simply Kids Week aboard the Intrepid Museum in NYC. This year the festival featured a screening of Heather Henson's curation of puppetry shorts Handmade Puppet Dreams. Puppet Heap's original short film Mother Hubbard was one of the shorts selected for the viewing. Puppet Heap was happy to be apart of Handmade Puppet Dreams as always, and director Paul Andrejco, stayed afterwards to answer any of the audience's questions during the talkback.

Chinese New Year with Grace Chang

Looking for a wonderful afternoon of family friendly "edu-tainment"?
Puppet Heap recommends you stop by the Brooklyn Central Library to see Grace Chang's Chinese New Year Gala event on February 13th. Grace has a wonderful show that includes acrobats, magic illusions, live music, and puppetry.

Puppet Heap was lucky enough to collaborate with Grace in the building of her magical dragon puppet named Jin Jin in 2009.

Puppet Heap hosts Women In Children's Media Event

Puppet Heap was thrilled to host Women In Children's Media last Tuesday. The ladies gathered at the Puppet Heap workshop in Hoboken, NJ for a tour of our space led by proprietor Paul Andrejco. The tour was followed by a Q & A session with Paul and some tasty wine and cheese (Thank You to our neighbor The Cheese Store!). The WICM ladies had a great time as did the Heap staff. We hope they learned a little bit about more our process and will come back and see us sometime soon!
