Basket of Stories: Sunday Session
Art of the Storyteller Workshops
(Sun 29 Oct: 10:30am)
The Art of the Storyteller series ends with two relaxed sessions of crafting, storytelling and conversation. Inspired by a Story Blanket gifted by Canadian First Nation tellers, and by Scottish Traveller traditions, Douglas Mackay and Katie Warner reflect on what we can weave today in creative response to land, heritage, culture and the interrelation between them.

People have been sharing stories since before language began. It is a subtle, complex and endlessly entertaining way of being human. Spend a morning with the best in the field to improve your skills and raise your ambitions. Hosted by Festival Director Donald Smith.

Join us as we explore, question and celebrate the Right To Be Human. This year, on the 75th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, we consider the many challenges we face, from human health and wellbeing to the health and future of our planet. However, there is also a worldwide movement to meet these challenges, and to exist imaginatively, fairly and in community with the whole diversity of life. Storytelling has embraced these values from the dawn of culture and stories today can help us be more connected to the world around us, as well as our rights, showing us how to be more alive and creative as humans.
