Puppet School TV
The Moving Parts Puppet School was a space for people in the North East of England to create, play, explore, express and imagine during lockdown. The Puppet School was created to spark creativity in kids, teens and adults alike through accessible and affordable courses during Covid-19.

The Moving Parts Puppet School ran in Spring 2021 by delivering two online courses for kids (7-11) and teens (12-16), made possible through funding from the Community Foundation / Newcastle Cultural Investment Fund. We returned for Autumn 2021 with three courses for kids, teens and adults in partnership with Life and Limb Puppets, made possible through funding from Arts Council England and the Community Foundation / Wide Open Road Fund.
"Thank you for giving my son something to look forward to each week which he felt was his 'thing'. He has continued to show an interest after puppet school has finished."
