Join us to celebrate World Storytelling Day. This global event is held annually on the spring equinox to bring people together through oral storytelling.

This year's theme is "Light in the Dark." The first hour will feature stories told by an experienced storyteller. Following a 10-minute intermission, the floor will open to audience members who wish to share their own stories with the group. Open to everyone with ears to hear and/or a story to tell. First-timers, experienced tellers and listeners are welcome!
