I love stories - telling them, and listening to them as well. Last year, I enjoyed (and learned a great deal from) attending Donald Davis' storytelling workshop. One of the great things about that experience was getting to know my friends Bill and Lida Jones a little better, and especially getting to hear Bill tell some stories. I had no idea before the workshop that Bill had recorded several storytelling CDs. If you would also like to hear some of Bill's stories, read below (another email I got today) for an upcoming opportunity to do just that.
On Sunday, September 27th at 3:00 the community will have a special opportunity to come to an end-of-season Porch Talk at the Ocracoke Preservation Society Museum!
Bill Jones, storyteller and president of the Executive Committee of OPS, had the wonderful idea to offer some relaxing, family-friendly entertainment, combined with fundraising for the organization. On Sunday afternoon he will share his talents with us. Bill takes events from his own life and shapes them into stories that entertain and explore universal themes. Hearing his humorous, thought-provoking tales might just make you start paying attention to the stories in your own lives! In addition to the storytelling, Jamie Tunnell will provide music.
Bring a chair and join us on the front lawn of the museum. The program will last approximately an hour.
No admission will be charged, but donations are appreciated and Bill’s CDs will be sold. All proceeds will go to the Ocracoke Preservation Society.
