Artful Connections At Artful Connections, we teach caregivers, educators & social workers how to use the power of puppe

Our mission at Puppeteria is to bring the magic and power of puppetry to educators, caregivers, and social workers. Through our various programs, we show you ways to use puppets as a tool for building stronger relationships, telling stories, educating, problem-solving, augmenting communication, enhancing creativity and simply having fun.
