Teachers and educators can find materials to work on emotions and improve learning using puppets as a resource. You will enter the play area: "Manipulate and play with the puppets". You will then enjoy a show and then we will guide you in the construction of your puppet and you will take it home. The teachers will give you a dossier to continue enjoying the classroom visit.

FAMILY or FRIEND VISITS

Let's take a tour of the museum's rooms where you will discover many stories of past and present puppets that have performed all over the world. You will have the opportunity to be puppeteers for a day in our playful space: "Manipulate and play with puppets", and then you will see a show that will bring you closer to the world of puppeteers. Visiting the museum is a source of learning that creates a new way of relating to family and friends, stimulating imagination and creativity.

It is planned, in the next year, to support various training initiatives in the field of puppets, visual theater and objects.

PUPPET AND THERAPY

The puppet is a resource that serves to release emotions and learn to manage them. He intervenes as a mediator and natural communicator of them. The intimate bond with the puppet as an extension of one's self fosters a sense of trust as an expressive instrument and is devoid of threats. An activity of the museum is the training of the use of puppets as a therapeutic and educational resource. Puppets that have been used by health professionals are also on display.

CULTURAL EVENTS

The Masia de Can Falguera, where the MIT is located, is a historic building with medieval, Gothic, modernist and noucentist elements. It has unique and multipurpose spaces for the cultural event to be a success. The museum makes them available to companies and entities to hold events, press conferences, conferences, exhibitions, meetings, filming, presentations... Thus promoting the cultural fabric. You can arrange a visit to find out if the place is suitable for your activities.

RESIDENCES

We support creators and researchers. One of the objectives of the puppet museum is to support the creation and production of scenic activities by facilitating access to the facilities for creators, researchers and artists to carry out their proposals, offering them a place for research and consolidation of projects. The MIT also offers the possibility of contracting the artistic accompaniment service.
