Join our workshop, make your own shadow puppet and play with it on the shadow stage. In this workshop that develops imagination, manual skills and creativity, children have fun and learn by making their own puppets. Don’t miss this workshop, which is organized with inspiration from the Karagöz puppet technique, which is on the UNESCO list.
From Einstein to Bart Simpson, from Nasreddin Hodja to Keloğlan, from Lego Man to Princess, many characters are waiting for you to come to life. When you have made your own puppet, you get to test it on our small shadow stage. You can take your puppet home and there you can continue having fun reflecting the shadow puppet on the wall with any small lamp.
