## About

The Center for Puppetry Arts presents its annual winter show, 'Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer', with a member-exclusive preview and craft day. The event recreates the world of the classic 1964 stop-motion animation, featuring skilled puppeteers performing live with music. After the show, children can move to the Create-A-Puppet Workshop to make their own Rudolph puppet using felt, dowels, and sequins to take home. The Center for Puppetry Arts' Jim Henson Collection and Global Collection of Puppetry are open all day, with child-friendly sinks, elevators to all floors, and a dedicated stroller parking area.
