In a collapse of business do to lack of support in a crisis by my community, family and government.....
I have MOVED all the Art, Masks, Puppets, tools and lesson plans that I can afford to keep to a couple of storage units in the Baltimore Maryland area!
5514 Heatherwood Road
Halethorpe, MD 21227 is my best address at this time.
Our Mask Shop is still selling masks and clown noses, though there may be a slight delay in the transition period through mid May.
I invite you to watch my Patreon Page where membership "Tiers" start at $1. Your support is helpful at this time, thanks.
"The Finest, Most Comfortable Handmade Masks, ANYWHERE," known around the world for the quality and comfort that Jeff Semmerling's professional tools of theatrical transformation offer. Makers of Opera, Theatre, Dance, Magic, Music, and serious fun makers and collectors all instantly and after hours of wearing appreciate the qualities 38 years of professional practice brings to their Semmerling Masks. In 2015 12 of his masks opened on Broadway in Lincoln Center Theater's "Falsettos." After the four year run the same masks now travel with the touring show, never having needed a repair.
Students from around the world come to his Chicago Store Front "Art Side Out Studio & MASK SHOP to learn Art & Mask Making from the Mad Master Mask Maker. There he teaches how to make Leather Masks in Weekend Intensive Workshops, After school and Day Off School for young artists, classes for Special Needs Therapies and more. You can also have him visit groups, clubs, performance ensembles/companies, schools, Libraries and Universities with visiting workshops and residencies or for special projects. Very few mask makers teach all that they know and none as free of nonsense and dogma as silly/serious Jeff Semmerling.
You too can support this loony career by acquiring a mask of your own, or taking classes or bringing the Mad Master to teach, show his masks or perform in them with walk around masks and piuppets or his show "The Magic of Masks."
