Story Arts is thrilled to welcome Liz Weir to lead our monthly workshop in April. Liz is an Irish storyteller with an international reputation, having shared her tales on five continents in a career spanning almost fifty years. Liz loves to breathe life into traditional tales and a lot of her favorite stories are firmly rooted in Irish folklore.
In this workshop she will consider important aspects of telling traditional stories including story selection, developing an authentic voice and cultural appropriation. You'll also hear about fairies, banshees, and selkies! To accommodate the time zone difference, we’re taking a break from our usual second-Tuesday-of-the-month evening schedule. Liz’s workshop will be held on Saturday, April 17, noon-1:30.
This event is open to everyone via Zoom teleconferencing. After registering, you'll receive an email message with the Zoom link.
Registration is free, although donations are appreciated to support SAM's virtual programming. The suggested donation is $10.
This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
