Overview

Our spring 2026 member pre-sale starts Friday, December 12. Tickets go on sale to the public on Monday, December 15.


The Crankie Island Song Project features Dervish’s Cathy Jordan and artist Peter Crann, who bring Irish lore to life through traditional songs from all across Ireland illustrated by hand-drawn crankies—picture scrolls that move with the music. They perform in the JL Greene Theatre at our annual family concert celebrating St. Brigid’s Day and Imbolc, the ancient Celtic festival marking the coming of spring, with Imbolc-inspired crafts to follow!

Recommended for ages 5 and up, but all are welcome.
