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. So far we have raised over $6,000! 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 2016 or for The Jenny Education Fund, proceeds of which are used to support storytelling events for youth in local schools and other venues. If you want to know more about how you can host a Hearth Tales event contact Jean Ellisen by email by clicking on her name above. SAC's Partners in the Arts
