The Chicago International Puppet Theater Festival showcases an entertaining and eclectic array of puppet styles from around the world. The year- round programs—including free community programs, artist professional development, and public workshops and training—are helping redefine the mainstream notion of puppetry and fostering cross- cultural understanding in a pluralistic world.
