Ann
Chevrefils

Ann considers herself a graduate of the Summer Solstice Celebration. She has been making masks for many years but moved into giant puppets as a result of her participation in the parade. Her favorites include a flock of 27-foot pteranodons, one of which still soars in the children’s area of Santa Barbara’s Central Library, and the whimsical flying bugs that carried passengers up State Street. Many of her puppets now reside at P.S. 1, a charter school in Denver, Colorado. Recently Ann designed the masks, costumes and puppets for Theater Gone Wild at the Santa Barbara Zoo. She likes to shop at hardware stores.
