Liz Weir is an Irish storyteller with an international reputation, having shared her tales on five continents in a career spanning almost fifty years. Liz loves to breathe life into traditional tales and a lot of her favorite stories are firmly rooted in Irish folklore.

In this workshop she will consider important aspects of telling traditional stories including story selection, developing an authentic voice and cultural appropriation. You'll also hear about fairies, banshees, and selkies!

This event is open to everyone via Zoom teleconferencing.  After registering, you'll receive an email message with the Zoom link.

Registration is free, although donations are appreciated to support SAM's virtual programming. The suggested donation is $10.
