Walking with Anansi: Giant Community Puppet Making
Solstice Theatre IE is a grassroots theatre project that uplifts stories of land, diaspora, and community empowerment through shadow puppetry play festivals themed around the environment, history, and diversity in the Inland Empire.
"We’re excited to bring a free community puppet-making workshop to share the story of Anansi, a trickster character from West African and Caribbean folklore”. The community is invited to explore Adinkra symbols and co-create puppets for a short procession through Beverly’s Garden at the Maloof Foundation.
This workshop is a partnership between Maloof Foundation and Sandalwood Farm and Sanctuary, presenting Living Pallet, an exploration of foodways, nature, and art. In collaboration with UCCE Master Food Preserver, with funding support from the Rancho Cucamonga Community and Arts Foundation. Workshops will be held at the Maloof Foundation and are free and open to the public. These accessible workshops emphasize the vital role of food preservation, gardening, and creative expression in connecting individuals to cultural and ecological heritage. Families and youth are welcome, and space is limited.
This program is sponsored by the Rancho Cucamonga Community and Arts Foundation.
