Mending Nets
Go Local: Glasgow
(Tue 26 Nov: 9pm - Glasgow)
Palestinian poet and dancer Nada Shawa and Scottish storyteller Janis Mackay build a bridge of friendship between Scotland and Palestine, presenting the simple and radical belief that the act of telling stories from our lands - especially stories of loss, friendship and hope - can be instrumental in helping people attempt to retrieve an unravelled sense of identity.

2024 marks the 35th anniversary of the Scottish International Storytelling Festival, coinciding with the 35th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. Since 1989, SISF has been building bridges between cultures, artists and audiences all over the world through the power of storytelling – connecting past, present and future. This year’s theme is ‘Bridges Between’. At a time where literal, figurative and societal walls continue to be constructed, we invite everyone to look beyond these boundaries and to celebrate the last and the next 35 years of storytelling with us.
This event is hosted by the Village Storytelling Centre at the Centre for Contemporary Art, 350 Sauchiehall Street G2 3JD and is ticketed at £10/£8 concession. For bookings and info click the link above, email info@villagestorytelling.org.uk or call 0141 882 3025.
