Description Little Amal is the giant puppet of a 10 year old Syrian refugee girl at the heart of The Walk, a large-scale participatory public art project imagined and directed by Amir Nizar Zuabi. Designed and built by Handspring Puppet Company of South Africa, Little Amal represents all children fleeing war, violence and persecution. Since July 2021, she has travelled over 9,000km across 12 countries with an urgent message: “Don’t forget about us”. Little Amal is now coming to New York City for 20 days of public events and artistic activities suitable for all ages.
