Can't get enough of marionettes? You'll love the Chicago International Puppet Theater Festival, which brings puppeteers from across the globe to the city for 12 days of symposiums and more than 100 performances and events. The Puppet Hub returns this year, which includes events on the fourth floor of the Fine Arts Building on Michigan Avenue—take a look around to find everything from a puppet-themed cafe to live puppet spectacle productions in the building’s massive Studebaker Theater. Also back is the Ellen Van Volkenburg Symposium, workshops with visiting puppet artists, the Catapult Artist Intensive and more. For a full list of performances, visit the festival’s website.
