Bird-Puppet Making Workshop and Parade with Artists Yvonne Lung & Eurhi Jones

Saturday, April 22, 2023

1:00 PM-4:00 PM

Join the flock with our Conversations With Birds Saturday Events Series!

From 1–3:15 p.m. inside our exhibition Conversations With Birds, Artists Yvonne Lung and Eurhi Jones will guide visitors in hands-on artmaking, creating paper-bird puppets, stars, moons, clouds, and a banner about the importance of caring for birds! The workshop will teach participants about bird migration patterns and ways to help birds in your community.

At 3:30 p.m.: Lung and Jones will gather workshop participants into a puppet flock for a celebratory Earth Day Bird Migration parade procession around Swann Memorial Fountain (or throughout the museum in the event of inclement weather).

The event is great for all ages, and all supplies to participate in the workshop will be provided. We encourage you to bring cardboard (shipping boxes, cereal boxes, etc.) from home to practice upcycling for the program.

This event is part of the Conversations with Birds Saturday Event Series.
