Join in a vibrant puppet-making workshop!

Create awesome animal puppets to play with at home, inspired by the rampant leopards and lions depicted in artworks from ancient times through the Renaissance on display in Calling on the Past. Then, put on a collaborative show with these “wild” animal puppets.

FREE, drop-in. Art-making supplies and other materials are provided. Family programs are best for kids 4–12, but all ages are welcomed! Children must be accompanied by an adult at all times.

ABOUT FAMILY DAYS

Family Days at the Smart Museum are designed to celebrate the creative potential in all of us. With new projects every month, Family Days offer opportunities for kids and their caregivers to create together and connect with one another. Each program is unique, fun, and free, emphasizing invention, improvisation, and hands-on creativity.
