Shadow Puppets have been delighting audiences for 

 more than 2,000 years. No one is sure where this 

 art form started, but different styles of puppets can 

 be found in China, Turkey, Indonesia, Egypt, India, 

 and Africa. Watch a Chinese style shadow puppet 

 play and make a puppet that you can use on our 

 special puppet stage. "The White Snake Lady," a 

 film of an ancient Chinese tale, will be screened for 

 all participants.
