A program of continuous creative workshops centered on theatre, puppetry, and animated forms, led by Teatro e Marionetas de Mandrágora. For children, we have established a regular training program spanning several days, with proposals ranging from visual creation to the development of theatrical play.

The CEM program (Casa Educativa da Marioneta) was established in 2018 at the Casa Branca de Gramido in Gondomar. Since then, it has carried out over a hundred activities, both in person and virtually, reaching thousands of spectators.
The year 2025 marks the eighth consecutive year of training sessions held on the last Saturday of every month. A significant milestone occurred in 2023, when the program was honored with the "Rosa María García Cano Award 2023" for "Educational Programs and Performing Arts Promotion Initiatives for Children and Youth," awarded by the Feria de Teatro de Castilla y León in Ciudad Rodrigo, Spain.

Puppets, while often associated with childhood, are deeply woven into our collective imagination, history, and tradition. This art form offers an inexhaustible wealth of theatrical experiences, constantly renewing itself through innovative creation and manipulation on the modern stage.
It is essential for educators to equip themselves with the specialized knowledge needed to facilitate these experiences. By exploring diverse materials and construction techniques, teachers can provide students with the tools to develop original creative work, transforming the classroom into a laboratory for theatrical discovery and artistic expression.
