Review:

The Center for Puppetry Arts is an institution with the goal to educate, enlighten and entertain children and adults through the ancient art form of puppetry.

Situated in the heart of the city’s arts district in Midtown, the center features live puppet performances, educational programs and one of the few puppet museums in the world. Puppet performances held at the center include the Family Series, a collection of adapted classic stories performed in a variety puppetry styles; the New Directions Series, which features teen and adult-oriented shows by local and visiting companies; and the Film Series, productions related to puppetry.

The Center also offers a variety of classes and workshops for adults and children alike, such as ‘Create-A-Puppet’ workshops’, where children are taught how to build and make their own puppets.

If you are looking for fun things to do in Atlanta with kids, this is a great choice. The Center’s museum - Puppets: The Power of Wonder – is an interactive museum with an excellent collection of over 350 puppets from around the world.
