The Center for Puppetry Arts isn’t just a museum—it’s a hands-on, immersive celebration of puppetry in all its forms. Home to the world’s largest collection of Jim Henson memorabilia, including original Muppets like Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy, this Midtown Atlanta gem brings childhood nostalgia and artistic craftsmanship together under one roof.

Beyond Henson’s legacy, the museum’s Global Collection showcases puppetry traditions from around the world, from Indonesian shadow puppets to African rod puppets, offering a fascinating look at how different cultures tell stories through this timeless art form. Live performances take center stage, with rotating productions for kids and adults alike, while interactive workshops let visitors create their own puppets to take home.

Whether you’re revisiting childhood favorites, diving into the history of puppetry, or watching a live performance, the Center for Puppetry Arts is where imagination and storytelling come to life—one string at a time.
