Flutter - Puppet show and Workshop

Watch a puppet show about being brave and also about the threats facing our native species from introduced predators and then learn how to make your own puppets.

Experience the magic of puppetry in this empowering and delightful show for young audiences.
A bat who is afraid of the dark encounters a glow worm who thinks she is a star. Themes of courage, friendship, and conservation are interwoven with a heartwarming story that introduces audiences to the unique and endangered short-tailed bat.
Show 11am -11.15. Suitable for 3 - 10 year olds.

Shadow puppet workshop
(4-10 year olds and their adults)

Explore a world of shadows. Create magical, and beautiful shadow puppet creatures using natural materials that you can find in your garden as well as build your own upcycled shadow box to take home.
The workshop starts immediately after the show, and finishes around 12.30pm.

Free with the support of the Wellington Creative Communities scheme.
