The First Occasional Storytelling Swap at Havurat Shalom

The First Occasional Storytelling Swap at

Havurat Shalom

With a Special Invitation to The Jewish Storytelling Coalition

March 19, 2017 from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM

On Sunday, March 19, 2017 from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM Havurat Shalom will be joined by some members of the Jewish Storytelling Coalition in a story swap. 
Nu? What’s a Story Swap?
Well some listeners (tales need listeners) and tellers gather to honor the teller and the tale. Some tellers will be experienced and others not at all. The leader asks who has a story to share, figures out a time limit (perhaps 5 minutes or 10) for each teller and decides who tells when.
 We ask that the tales come from what we learned from being Jewish. They can be from the centuries of lore from Midrash to Modern times; or original; or personal tales.  We invite persons of all ages.
 This will not be a pot luck dinner. But bringing nosh would be considered praiseworthy, and some ice cream would be considered an act of kindness.
 So, come, sit, listen, tell, enjoy.
We ask that you consider contributing a little to the Havurat for graciously hosting this.
