We are continuing a games programme entitled the ‘Aware Game Awards’ (AGA). This programme is dedicated to celebrating those games that strive to raise awareness about a range of topics, from personal experiences to global or social issues – games that focus on immersion and empathy, helping us to better understand each other and the world around us. We aim to show our audiences a completely different and unexpected side of gaming, while also inspiring and involving local creative communities.

BLON Animation and Games Festival invites you to a Stop-Motion Puppet Animation Exhibition at the Klaipėda Puppet Theater!
Puppet stop-motion animation is a technique in which physical puppets or figures are moved incrementally and photographed at each stage, creating the illusion that they move on their own.
The exhibition will showcase characters and sets used in the making of three animated films: “Living Large” (animator Viliam Vala), “On Weary Wings Go By” (director and animator Anu-Laura Tuttelberg), and “The Conductor” (director and animator Antanas Skučas). We invite you to explore the exhibition and meet its creators!
Exhibition opening hours during BLON Festival: September 12, 12:00–19:00 September 13, 13:30–19:00
September 13, 13:30 – meeting with the creators
Discover a world of magic and wonder in which the boundaries of time, space and human emotions blur, offering an immersive and unique journey like no other.
