SUMMARY:Story Treasures: Gems of the Present and Past
DESCRIPTION:Featuring renowned tellers Connie Regan-Blake and Laura Hope-Gill!\n\n\n\nThis evening of tales celebrates the wonder that comes from spinning our experiences into stories and from listening to the old stories that have guided us through time\, attuning us to what it means to be human living in a wondrous world. Wonder is the true treasure that keeps us alert and curious\, energetic and attentive even through the toughest times. Cultures have long turned to storytelling in the midst of winter for warmth and community. Also\, stories remind us that the wonders of our hearts and imaginations are immune to the ice and chill\, and burns forever alight when we listen to one another. This is why stories are our treasure and why in Gaelic culture it is said\, that a story well-told is more precious than gold. \nTickets for Story Treasures are $18 if purchased in advance\, or $22 if purchased at the door.
