ABOUT THE WORKSHOP

‘Anansi & The Lost Sun - Puppet Making Workshop’ is a part of Mini MigMat, where we present a range of events specifically for our younger audiences. This workshop is suited for children aged 4+ (and an accompanying adult).

Join us for a fun and creative puppet-making workshop for families with children aged 4+.

Using everyday items usually found in the bin - like cups, wooden cutlery, and scrap paper - you’ll design and build your very own lion puppet. This hands-on session encourages imagination, sustainability, and playful storytelling.

All materials are provided, and each family will leave with a unique puppet to take home. Come and turn recycled objects into something magical while spending quality time together in a relaxed, welcoming environment.

No experience needed - just bring your curiosity and creativity!
