Storytelling takes over the world

Adults and children alike will be treated to endless tales in Holon's Mediatheque.

Adults and children alike will be treated to endless tales on Saturday in Holon's Mediatheque in honor of International Storytelling Day. The event will be held in conjunction with The Story Telling Company and will revolve around the theme of "neighbors." Participants will not only be treated to stories told aloud, they will also learn about the original ways legends were conveyed, stories in the digital media and group storytelling. International Storytelling Day was begun five years ago by a Swedish group of storytellers; it is held yearly on or around the vernal equinox. The theme is chosen in an effort to find something that ties together cultures across the world. For tickets and information, visit www.mediatheque.org.il or call (03) 502-1552.
