DIY Squirrel Puppet Taxidermy Workshop at The Insect Asylum
In this class you’ll learn how to sew, stuff, and assemble a squirrel head, then attach it to a puppet stick or pen of your choice. Customize your creation with different head shapes, eye colors, and materials to make it uniquely yours. Please be aware that our taxidermist will demo the skinning as part of the education neccessary for completing this project.
No experience necessary - just bring your creativity! All materials provided.
