Senior Citizen Puppet Passport Program
Event Details
Puppet Passport is a free six week creative series made just for adults 55 and up, where stories come to life, memories are honored, and imagination takes center stage. Led by teaching artists from Atlanta's Center for Puppetry Arts, each one hour session uses puppetry as a joyful tool for storytelling, self-expression, cultural exploration, and social connection. No experience is needed, just curiosity and good energy.
