A place for those who love puppets to come together!

​

Drama of Works is proud to announce that we have received a mini-grant from ART/NY, as a part of their Accessibility Cohort, to embark on a project that's been on our minds for many years now...

​

 We would like to let you know about PUPPET CLUB, a place where individuals who are "differently-wired" (those with ASD, ID, developmental disabilities, etc.) can meet and discuss their love of puppetry. We see that puppetry (and specifically hand and rod/Muppet-style puppetry) is extremely meaningful in the lives of many of these individuals and we want to give them a space to explore their shared interests and make new connections, relationships, and hopefully friendships.
