Stories for the Summer Solstice
Thursday, June 10, 7-8:30 pm
Upstairs at Just Us! Cafe
5896 Spring Garden Road, corner of Carleton
www.justuscoffee.com
We’re more than likely to be fog-bound in June,
but summer comes anyway, and that longest day
is less than two weeks away.
So lets gather to celebrate the solstice with stories of
summer, the turning of the seasons, old tales and new
observances…. Or stories of fog, if you will.
Anytime after 6:30; stories start at 7:00.
All Welcome, to tell or to listen.

This participatory workshop is for novice or intermediate tellers who wish to explore storytelling for use in literary, educational, or historical environments, or for community, casual or performance type events.

Stephen Foster said: Let us pause in life's pleasures and count its many tears
While we all sup sorrow with the poor
There's a song that will linger forever in our ears...
Eleanor Rigby put on her Long Black Veil and took the Midnight Special to Nowhere Man because she had promised to Send In The Clowns to cheer up Tom Dooley who was suffering in St. James Infirmary with the Worried Man Blues.
Frankie & Johnnie had Trouble In Mind when they passed this Wayfaring Stranger going Down To The River To Pray and not even Angels From Montgomery could have saved her from what waited on the Banks Of The Ohio.
