PAPER PUPPETS PARADISE | TK-K | Tue 130-215 (45m)
by MX PTA Afterschool Enrichment Program
DescriptionBring your stories to life through puppetry. Puppetry allows us to be builders, writers, designers, performers and illustrators. We will use recycled materials to create new, never before seen puppet stories! In addition to meeting different styles of puppets, we will build jointed puppets, rod puppets and mini theaters. In these classes of exploration, we will work together to build puppets, scenery and short shows. Berkeley based artist and educator Risa Lenore Anderson Dye weaves stories and images together into dynamic contemporary puppet shows and scenes with Possibly Puppets and Jelly Jam Time Puppets. She uses recycled or discarded materials when possible. Her work was awarded the Jim Henson Foundation Grant and The City of Berkeley independent Artist Grant in 2024.

[SHORT Semester 90 min] Building Workshop with 9th Street Lab (g 4-5) [6wk 9/15-10/22] - Wed 135
by MX PTA Afterschool Enrichment Program
DescriptionWe learn to build and build to learn. We cultivate youth creativity, curiosity, and imagination. We grow confidence while developing life-long skills. We build amazing things. We have fun. At 9th Street Lab, we develop workshops that collaborate with students and teach basic building skills and use of hand tools. Each workshop offers a balance between a structured building project and open-ended explorations, with the student’s learning, problem-solving, and creative expression at the center. Each workshop has three components: learning hands-on skills, exploring and developing imagination and curiosity, and building meaningful things. Workshops include woodworking, reverse engineering, art, music instrument making, design thinking, and much more. We have taken apart cars and computers and we have built two-story dragon forts using only manila rope, bamboo, and our hands. 9th Street Lab was founded and is directed by Steve Tornallyay. Steve’s professional background includes industrial design, museum planning, and exhibition design. Through his work as a designer, museum planner, museum director, educator, and community volunteer, he has designed learning environments and programs for museums, libraries, schools, and maker spaces. In 2013, he created Girls Engineering at Washington Elementary School. The club was organized to bring first-grade girls together to exploreengineering. Activities included taking apart computers, building bamboo climbing towers, dissecting sheep’s hearts, taking apart a car, coding, exploring candy chemistry, and more. In 2019, Girls Engineering expanded and 9th Street Lab was developed to offer workshops for all youth.9th Street Lab has collaborated with Berkeley Unified School District for the LEARNS after school program. Hands-on workshops were facilitated for Washington Elementary School and King Elementary School and Longfellow Middle School. 9th Street Lab also facilitates workshops for Berkeley Public Library and Berkeley Parks and Recreation.
