National Storytelling Week
The Society for Storytelling’s Annual National Storytelling Week takes place between 30 January – 5 February in storytelling clubs, theatres, museums, schools, hospitals, spoken word venues, and care homes (where this event has been steadily growing each year!).
Wherever the events take place, the web of stories will be spun with sufficient magic between the breath of the teller and the ear of the listener.
National Storytelling Week is celebrated by all ages enjoying folk tales, fairy lore, figments, phantoms, dragons, serpents, storms at sea and so much more. Search to find out what storytelling events are coming up in Moray and get involved – or join one of the online events from the Literacy Trust.
