Calgary Animated Objects Society

Dedicated to the arts of mask, puppetry and animated objects, Calgary Animated Objects Society is a non-profit charitable group running since 2003 in Calgary, Alberta. 

 

We believe the artistic spirit lives within each one of us.

CAOS at the Festival of Animated Objects

Another wild time in the books for

Dolly Wiggler Cabaret!
As part of the Festival of Animated Objects, CAOS puts on the “anything goes” Dolly Wiggler Cabaret every year, a riotous night of short form puppetry for adults held at the *probably* haunted #1 Legion.

For the first time ever, the Dolly Wiggler Cabaret happened three times this year on March 20th and 21st, 2026!  Friday night, Saturday night and a super special Brunch edition on March 21st! We rolled out our Artist Announcements on our Instagram and Facebook, so head on over to see those or click the button below for more information.
