Puppet Week NYC

The inaugural Puppet Week NYC includes two exhibits dedicated to the puppets of New York City—at the Museum of the City of New York (August 13–ongoing) and the Clemente Center (August 11–September 30)—plus the return of the International Puppet Fringe Festival. The festival, which runs August 11–15 at the Clemente, features more than 40 puppet troupes and will continue with virtual programming through the end of August. You’ll also find panel discussions and other events—many free, outdoors and open to the public. Check the website for the complete schedule.
