Join us as we delve into the enchanting world of Egyptian tales and legends. Discover the significance of the Aragoz, a traditional puppet, and learn how it has preserved Egyptian culture throughout the ages. Through interactive activities and engaging discussions, children will gain a deeper understanding of the rich cultural heritage associated with the Aragoz.
But the excitement doesn’t stop there! Every child will have the opportunity to create their very own Aragoz puppet. Let your imagination run wild as you bring your puppet to life, adding unique touches and personal flair. Then, prepare to shine on the stage as you and your puppet perform an original story that you create during the workshop. It’s your chance to become a puppeteer and captivate your audience with your storytelling skills!
So, gather the whole family and join us for an unforgettable Egyptian Puppetry Workshop. Get ready to be immersed in the magic of this endangered cultural practice and explore the power of stories. This workshop is open to families with children ages 6 and older. Come and enjoy an afternoon of learning about Arab cultural practices, Arabic, and much much more at no cost to you! Snacks will be provided and you can go home with one of our Culture Crates!
Parents must be in attendence.
