3rd Annual Boston Storytelling Festival@ Boston Public Library

"It’s that magical time of year; it’s dark, we’ve survived our first blizzard, it has been cold and will continue to be cold - maybe forever. For those of us who aren’t spending February Vacation in the Bahamas, there’s a small light a bit closer to home. In honor of the oldest human tradition the Boston Public Library will be hosting the third annual Boston Storytelling Festival on Saturday, Feb 15th, 2014. We’re inviting people (big and small) to gather around the proverbial fire for a variety of storytelling experiences -- including workshops, folk and fairy tales and a themed slam."
