Piedmont Arts and Beegins With You will host a free puppet-themed Family Day from 10 a.m.-1 p.m., Saturday, April 12 in the Gravely-Lester Art Garden.
Children and adults are invited to take part in this fun event featuring puppet-making crafts, an Easter egg hunt and a giant puppet parade by Paperhand Puppet Intervention.
Paperhand Puppet Intervention is a unique puppet theater based in Saxapahaw, N.C. Its members have been creating giant papier-mâché puppets, masks, shadow plays and spectacle performances since 1997. As part of their parades they tell stories, beat drums and encourage interaction. Their award-winning performances aim to be an inspiration, a call to action and a celebration for everyone to enjoy.
This event is free and open to the public. It is sponsored by Carter Bank.
