FYI,

 

 

This year's 2017 NJ Storytelling Festival is the 25th Anniversary of this event celebrating the art of oral stories for kids, teens, and adults. Generous grant funding and a move to a new location have ensured that both the festival and the morning workshop for people wanting to hone their storytelling skills is completely FREE.  The festival organizers are hoping that librarians serving youth and adults will share this information with their patrons. Library staff may also be interested in attending it themselves for professional development.
