Program Description

Event Description

What's a crankie you ask? They are an old storytelling art form. Start with a long illustrated scroll that is wound onto two spools. The spools are loaded into a box which has a viewing window. The scroll is then hand-cranked while the story is told, a song is sung or a tune is played.

Come create your own Crankie using items you would find at home! To learn more or look at examples, check out http://www.thecrankiefactory.com/
