About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour 30 minutes

A crankie is a moving panorama storyboard—a fun, hand-cranked paper scroll that brings stories to life! In this hands-on workshop, kids aged 7-12 will explore storytelling, sketch their own storyboards, and transform them into a working crankie theatre. By assembling their crankie box and turning the handles, they’ll see their tales unfold, one scene at a time.Let your imagination roll—literally!
