FARMINGTON — The Farmington Public Library invites the public and especially those who enjoy listening to storytellers, or who have a story to tell, to share a time with Jo Radner, folklorist, storyteller, writer and oral historian, from 10-11:30 a.m. Saturday, July 8.
Radner will introduce experienced tellers who will offer a variety of artful comic and heartwarming stories drawn from daily life that can inspire our own memories, such as a tale about saving a man from going to jail for speeding; another about how a childhood outhouse taught propriety and courage; an epic account of losing and finding a shopping cart; a moving story about discovering the secret of one’s own origins; an account of a daughter who finally overcame her domestic disabilities; and more. Audience members will have the opportunity to share their own memories, if they wish.
Sponsored by Western Maine Storytelling. Free and open to the public.
