The Connecticut Guild of Puppetry’s mission is to provide a meeting place and forum where people with an interest and love of the art form may share knowledge, ideas, trends, and creative endeavors.
It is the intent of the Guild to encourage the raising of standards of the art of puppetry; to foster awareness in the general public of the magic, wonder, and power of the puppet; and to encourage the use of puppetry as an educational tool.
