In 1945, Burr Tillstrom introduced the art of puppetry to a painting school and summer retreat called OxBow. Over the next 35 years, Burr attracted puppeteers from around the country to meet there.
Today, Oxbow School of Art and Artists' Residency welcomes puppeteers back for KuklaFest, the second annual conference and retreat for artists to share their work and sharpen their skills.
KuklaFest is set at the OxBow Lagoon surrounded by 700 acres of pristine nature preserve on the Kalamazoo River in Saugatuck, Michigan.
The three-day conference includes all meals, with choices for a variety of dietary preferences, 24-hour snack and beverage service, and single or double occupancy rooms.
KuklaFest is an intimate retreat for the serious puppeteer with in-depth classes and lectures on various aspects of the art of puppetry by professionals in the field.
