BUILD A PUPPET.
MAKE A CHARACTER.
HAVE A RIDICULOUSLY GOOD TIME.
Every Boopos workshop starts with a professionally designed Boopos Blank and one very important question: Who is this thing going to become?
With guidance from Boopos creator and professional puppet builder Sam Carter, participants transform their blank into an original puppet character using creative materials, puppet-building techniques and their own imagination.
No puppet-making experience is required. The working puppet foundation gives you a head start so you can spend your workshop creating the character instead of engineering a puppet from scratch.
