Creative Lab is a series of interdisciplinary workshops designed and led by Guild Hall’s visiting, exhibiting, resident artists, and staff. Each Creative Lab invites participants to learn about an artist’s practice through an open lecture and a participatory workshop.
This evening’s Lab is led by Guild Halls Patti Kenner Director of Learning + New Works, Anthony Madonna. Trained as a musician and educator, Anthony strives to construct experiences that both critically challenge our individual beliefs and bring awareness to our responsibility as a community. Anthony has worked within institutions such as The McCarter Theatre Center, The Juilliard School, and the Barbican Centre. His projects have been shown and/or performed as part of the Tate Modern: Tate Exchange (London), the Barbican Centre’s Dialogue, UnFinished, and Curious festivals (London), Guild Hall of East Hampton (Long Island, NY), and The Arts Center at Duck Creek (Long Island, NY).

This evening’s Lab is led by fine artist & puppeteer, Liz Joyce.

She honed her carving skills working with traditional puppet carvers in Prague, Czech Republic, and often collaborates with other puppeteers in the international puppet community. Liz’s puppet operetta, Sing a Song of Sixpence, was awarded a UNIMA Citation, the highest award in American puppetry.
The Lab will focus on Liz’s puppetry and theatre practice. A collaboration between Liz Joyce and both Wainscott & Sagaponack schools is on view in the current exhibition, Student Art Festival: Eco vs Ego.
