Twin Cities’ Puppet and Mask Lending Library

The Twin Cities is now home to a puppet and mask lending library. Here you can find unique one of a kind puppets for your organization, school or personal at home use!

The Heart of the Beast Puppet Theatre is proud to provide this hands-on opportunity that will help kids and families embrace and participate in using puppets through a free two-week checkout system, just as they would do with a book at the library. 

The puppets can be used for community events, school plays, personal celebrations, and more. Everyone who checks out a puppet or mask will get a lesson on how to wear and operate what they’re borrowing. There are so many puppets to choose from you are sure to find a one of a kind puppet just for your unique and fun event.
