Thursday, July 16th, at 5 pm, The West Side Bazaar will be hosting a Burmese Puppetry Workshop and performance. Khin Maung Htwe will be bringing, from Burma, his international folk art skills to share with us. Khin Maung Htwe was flown to the US to teach the art of Burmese puppetry with the International Folk Art Alliance in Santa Fe New Mexico. Please Join the West Side Bazaar for this unique and interesting experience. The event is free and for all ages!
Background on Artist: Khin Maung Htwe became very involved with theater at a young age, brought on by his mother’s influence. His studies in mechanical engineering and passion for the arts led him to later in life starting the Htwe Oo Myanmar Traditional Puppet Theatre in 2006. His goal is to show the Myanmar string puppetry and through doing that share a piece of the Myanmar culture to the rest of the world.
