Participants will explore social justice, identity, and leadership, learn about media arts and storytelling, and discover the art of puppetry, making their own puppet to take home.
Participants explored social justice, individual identity, and group collaboration through creative movement. They created brief stop-motion animation stories on iPads and enjoyed a bilingual puppet show in celebration of Day of the Dead. Said one patron: "The concept of using motion and dance to show how our bodies and interactions affect other people is really cool. Thank you for having this program!"
