Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

For millennia, puppetry has been shaped by the cultures and lived experiences of artists and craftspeople around the globe. This diversity enriches and strengthens the puppetry arts. The Puppet Guild of Greater St. Louis embraces diversity and strives to build an equitable and inclusive community where everyone with a heart for puppetry can tell their story. We do this by:

  • offering a variety of inclusive and accessible programs for diverse audiences

  • cultivating an inclusive community for puppeteers of all identities, sexual orientations, genders, religions, races, ethnicities, ages, incomes, and abilities

  • increasing the visibility of puppetry artists from marginalized and underrecognized communities
