Puppets Meet Avatars/Low Tech Meets High Tech
This school year we are continuing to offer integrated arts and technology programs. Our puppet literacy offerings now can include an even greater variety of media. Our multimedia programs, especially appropriate for middle and high school students, combine Puppetry Arts with Flash Animation and Stop Motion Claymation.
Little Puppet Lovers and Their Parents
Especially appropriate for Pre School and Elementary School Age children, you can book performances of Witch Bungle, The Empty Pot and Group Soup for your children. We also offer wonderful Parent Literacy and Arts Workshops which can be held in conjunction with one of these performances. Also check out our list of FREE performances at Brooklyn Public Libraries throughout the borough!

At this time, we are also accepting proposals from community members wishing to utilize our museum to offer free community classes or workshops. The PIP Museum in Marine Park, Brooklyn is open by appointment.
