On July 30 at 7pm, the Alton Mill Arts Centre will see a bus load of storytellers, each armed with tales from their various journeys, come together for Culture Café’s Stories From Elsewhere.
From harrowing to sublime, strange to ridiculous, the evening promises to have it all.
“Whether it’s about being attacked by sharks in Hawaii, climbing mountains in Africa, or coming face to face with a moose in Newfoundland, everyone has a story to tell”, said Harry Posner, arts and culture programmer at the Alton Mill. “Stories are the lifeblood of any community, and so this evening will be a place in which people can share their experiences, whether profound or just plain funny.”
Storytellers include special guest Nicola Ross, journalist and author of Caledon Hikes: Loops and Lattes, as well as Elswyth Fryer, Mark Grice, Daniel Kolosh, Maria Coletta MacLean, Clare McCarthy, Bob and Caroline Menzies, Alberta Nye, Kat Selby, Barb Stasiw, and Andrew Welch.
Plus guitarist Jon Farmer will share his musical stories throughout the evening.
Tickets are $5 at the door. Nibbles by Shaw’s Creek Café. For more information visit www.altonmill.ca.
