About Us

GPAGP is committed to meeting the needs of our members, both professionals and amateurs, and we've been doing so for a long time. We are the oldest puppetry guild in the United States, founded in 1938. We were chartered in 1940 by The Puppeteers of America as their 2nd chartered guild and remain affiliated to this day.
