7 day Hand carving course under the leadership of experienced art carvers – puppeteers Adam and Aleš. Maximum people in the workshop is limited to 3. The dates of the course are set individually according to your demand. Read the details bellow for more informations.
You will learn under the supervision of Aleš how to carve, paint, assemble and control marionette according to your design. The workshop takes place at Czech Marionettes atelier, where all those beautiful marionettes came to life, next to the Prague Castle.
First two days you will learn about technology drawings with Adam and you will draw your picture of your future marionette. The rest of our workshop you will stay with Aleš, founder of our Bonnie marionette, who will learn you how to carve marionette, how to paint it and how to put together all parts.
On the end of the week, you will leave our workshop with your beautiful marionette.
I and my friends from Prague’s puppet community will show you our beautiful city and its magic. We will steer my boat to close nature (there is one free day of the course) as well as test the very best beer around the world.
Feel free to contact me any questions you may have.
Hope to see you here in Prague!

Thank you for all your advice and help! Guys at Czech Marionettes are really masters of what they do. I have visited them in their studio and got my Skeleton there. Will buy more professional stuff there.
I was surprised by how easy and fun it is to operate. The controls and strings are straightforward, making it easy to create various dance movements. For its size, the puppet is very compact and can be comfortably carried in a small backpack. If you're looking for a simple yet entertaining and nice marionette, this marionette is a fantastic choice.
If you enjoy Marionettes this is the site for you - your time and effort will be used wisely if you love creative puppets I recommend this site owner unconditionally and enthusiastically!
