The Willamette Valley Puppeteers, a chartered Guild of Puppeteers of America, serves western and southern Oregon and a large surrounding area to bring together all persons interested in puppetry to share experiences, skills, and resources; to promote excellence in puppetry; and to enhance its public image as a performing art and an educational or therapeutic tool.

The Guild meets once a month (although we sometimes skip a few months due to holidays or members' summer vacations) to enjoy the fellowship of other puppeteers and to plan events such as performances and workshops for members and for the public. Locations, dates, time, and nature of meetings and other activities are determined by the members. There are no dues to pay, and anyone interested in any aspect of puppetry is invited to join - just attend a meeting or contact us by e-mail or telephone. Members receive a newsletter and other information by e-mail. Those who are unable to attend meetings in western Oregon are invited to participate as e-members. Members are invited to post a list of their upcoming public performances or a link to their puppetry-related website on our "Events and Artists" page, at no charge. For more information, or to join the Guild, contact guild president Doris Hicks at [email protected] or phone 458-205-8570 in Eugene, Oregon.
