The American Theater for Puppetry Arts is dedicated to advancing puppetry in the United States by introducing the art form and vocation to broader and more diverse individuals, audiences, and communities. The nonprofit theater will accomplish its purpose and mission by developing, building, and presenting original puppet-centric plays, musicals, and immersive theatrical experiences; training a new generation of puppet directors, writers, designers, builders, puppeteers, and theater administrators through educational, hands-on residencies, internships, workshops, and camps; incubating and advancing puppet-centric productions created by independent puppeteers and artists, as well as nonprofit theater companies; and serving as an ambassador of puppetry with performing arts organizations and leaders, public and private funders, and theatrical producers and presenters.
