Join the XYZ Coterie in the Nova Tuskhut lounge and performance hall for an soirée hosted by Sue Truman, crankie specialist from the coastal seaport of Seattle. Mrs. Truman will lead us in an elaboration of two of her crankies.

Otherwise known as "moving panoramas," crankies are modern day reinterpretations of the 19th-century form, being produced and performed around the country and at festivals like the Northwest Folklife Fest and the Brooklyn Folk Festival.
