Hearth Tales Continues to Support the Bay Area Storytelling Festival
We are very excited about the success of our Hearth Tales
house concert series of fundraisers to raise awareness of and funds
for the Bay Area Storytelling Festival.
Last year we raised over $3,000! Thanks to our enthusiastic hosts, tellers, and
contributors for their support.
Families, friends, neighbors, groups, gathered in living rooms,
in gardens, parks, even at an authentic African mud hut!
The Hearth Tales program continues on, so if you want to host an
event, we can help make that happen. Hosts now can direct the
contributions collected for support of either BASF 2015 or for The Jenny Education Fund, proceeds of which are used to support storytelling
events for youth in local schools and other venues. Contact Ginger Sevilla if you want to know more.
