Perhaps that phrase “deal with” is an apt description for the labor of love which Hess and a core of about a dozen volunteers have put into the museum and its more than 1,000 puppets over the past decade. The whole operation, currently based on Fourth Street in Bremerton, runs on a completely volunteer basis, under the auspice of the non-profit Evergreen Children’s Theatre.
