Center for Puppetry Arts, Puppet museum and theater in Midtown Atlanta, United States.
The Center for Puppetry Arts encompasses three main sections: a performance theater, an educational department, and a museum displaying international puppet collections.
Vincent Anthony established the Center for Puppetry Arts in 1978 in a former elementary school building, with Kermit the Frog attending the opening ceremony.
