Thanks, Mr. Rome, for the suggestion to connect!
I'll attach a resource list for summer and/or university puppetry programs, Mr. Johnson--don't hesitate to connect should you have any questions and/or need any additional resources. I am also happy to chat with you and/or your student in Lincoln.
All my best,
Aretta

I can not endorse this program, simply know of its existence from Avenue Q casting calls.
"UConn soon became one of only two (soon to be three) universities in the country offering a BFA degree in puppet arts and the only institution in the country offering masters degrees (both MA and MFA) in the field."

I have a student who has developed an interest in studying puppetry in college, and I have no idea where to direct him. Does anybody know of good post-secondary puppetry programs?
