To the parental units, child friendly folks, the "young at heart," and yeah, you kids:


The team at Etsy Labs is pleased to announce our next artist-in-residence: StaceyRebecca ( StaceyRebecca.etsy.com), master puppetier and hands-on learning guru!


Stacey is coming to our Brooklyn headquarters all the way from Arizona to offer up a number of classes including PUPPET MAKING 101 for adults on June 8 and 9, as well as a voluntary show on the 10th. AND...Calling all kids ages 8-14! Stacey will be teaching a PUPPET MAKING CLASS FOR KIDS on June 9. Students will walk away with a kid-sized, moving-mouth, hand puppet as well as a basic knowledge of manipulation.


See all class listings with exact times and to purchase a spot: http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5029420&section_id=5052133. Look for an additional listing for an extended weekend workshop for manipulation of your new-found friend and the opportunity to perform a show the following Sunday, if you so choose!


Please spread the word to people who love making things and acting silly! Stacey has taught extensively with young children under a federal arts grant. She rocks! You can check out her puppets here: http://staceyrebecca.etsy.com

I wish I had seen these earlier. This would have been an excellent thing to do.
