A puppet making workshop for children will take place at the Courtyard Theatre on Saturday 8 September from 11am-3pm.

The fun workshop, run by Dooglebugs, will give kids the chance to design and make their very own puppet to take home!

Children from 8 to 14 years are suitable for this class and the £5 fee includes the puppet which can be taken home. Places are limited and bookings can be made by calling the Courtyard Theatre on 028 9084 8287.

This workshop is just one of the Arts and Heritage workshops and events taking place this autumn/winter. A brochure can be downloaded at www.newtownabbey.gov.uk/arts or hard copies can be requested by emailing jcoulter@newtownabbey.gov.uk.
