Drop-in Family Workshop: Object Puppet Workshop with artist Rosie Cooper

10am - 1pm
Turner Contemporary Project Space, 53-57 High Street, Margate
Free
No booking required
Children under 16 must be accompanied by adults

Margate Rocks 08 commissioned artist Rosie Cooper asks you to imagine a future in which humans are no longer present on earth - having polluted all natural resources beyond all use! Your challenge is to create puppets and animated props in response to this vision. Rosie will be on hand to help you create your characters, models and objects that are made from recycled materials and found images, using traditional puppetry techniques.

Rosie Cooper’s commissioned work, Performance of A Mysterium, a spectacle of props, light and music, will launch the Margate Rocks festival on Friday 2 May at 8.30pm in the ballroom of the Walpole Bay Hotel & Living Museum, Cliftonville.
