Calling on Crankie Artists (and Aspiring Crankie Artists!)

Join Belfast’s first-ever Crankie Matinee! The Belfast Poetry Festival in Belfast, ME is seeking crankies for Crankie Matinee, a performance and exhibition of crankie art. Crankie Matinee will take place on Saturday, Oct 19 at 10am, and artists may choose to exhibit and/or perform their work during this time. We hope to reach new audiences who have never seen a crankie show before, and inspire creators to experiment with the form and invent fresh approaches to the magic of the picture story.

For details and to register, complete a contact form with the subject line “Crankie Matinee” or email me at imluckyplatt(at)gmail
