My name is Joel Amaniampong , I'm from Ghana in west Africa , i have completed high school . i also studied visual art in high and I'm a very creative person, i have a very great passion in becoming a puppeteer because after i completed high school i got an opportunity to reach out to children in schools in Ghana, it was a voluntary work. i met one man who introduced puppet to us and since then i have gotten so much interest in using puppet. I've realize that i can use puppet to create opportunity for children in Ghana .i have little knowledge about the use of puppet. i want to use puppet as my career, There isn't  any puppet schools and shops in Ghana. it is not common in my country so please help me by training me everything about puppet ,i would be very grateful if you would want me to stay and work with you in your country to gain more knowledge and experience..thank you so much for having time to read this message..God bless you.    this is my email

Welcome to Puppets and Stuff Joel. I don't know if anyone is going to be able to afford to have you come live with them here in the US but I am sure you can learn a lot just by looking through the older post and we are always happy to answer questions you may post.

I do see that you sent this introduction to me as a PM and also copy and pasted it in the Contact form. I do hope you did not PM it also to everyone else.   Once is enough.
