Family Studio: Making Crankies!

Sat, Nov 7 / 10:30 am–12 pm

Family Studio: Crankies! Moving Stories

Family Studio is a 90-minute collaborative workshop for children ages five and up and their caregivers. 

Drawing inspiration from Nike: Form Follows Motion, this hands-on workshop led by puppeteer and fiber artist J Hann introduces participants to crankies, also known as storytelling machines. Working together to create a visual narrative, families will create dynamic landscapes on a paper scroll for a pair of traveling puppet sneakers.  

All materials are provided. Space is limited, and registration is required in advance. Tickets to the Museum must be purchased separately. Have questions? Email education@madmuseum.org.
