Trivia Puppet Company provides a vehicle to explore the puppet arts, develop new works, produce films and festivals, and engage a wide variety of people through storytelling and entertainment.

We hope to entertain and inspire members of these communities to tell their own stories while enjoying groundbreaking work in contemporary puppetry.

He has recently held the Bellwether 2022 digital residency as well as a 2024 Seattle artist at the center residency.
