Clair Hosted by Cindy Campbell-Stone \nDate: Thursday December 1stTime: 7:00-8:00 pm Eastern Time Register on Eventbrite – registration by donationClick ‘Go to Link’ or visit our website to register: https://bit.ly/storysavelisteningparty \nTo celebrate StorySave’s 20th anniversary\, we are throwing a listening party! We invite you to re-listen and re-consider some of our favorite albums from over the years\, and then join us on Zoom to discuss and share your thoughts. \nThink of it like a book club- we invite you to listen (or re-listen!) to a selected album\, reflect\, and then come together to discuss and share your thoughts with others. Each session we will welcome a host who can provide further insight into the artist\, the album\, and the stories. This program is by donation and facilitated by Storytellers of Canada. Registration is required and meetings are limited to 20 people\, first come first serve. \nAbout the AlbumJim St. Clair\, Stories of Cape Breton (2008)Jim St. Clair tells tales tales of ghosts and great happenings\, of courage\, adventure and everyday deeds. Each has its origin in a place which can still be visited; each involves people whose descendants walk the hills of Cape Breton to this day. \nAll his life\, Jim has listened to the stories of the island that is his home: stories told by relatives and friends at ceilihds and across kitchen tables. He has dedicated much time and energy to ensuring that the tales he has heard are passed on. Storytelling is a vital part of Cape Breton’s cultural heritage—a very particular means of keeping the history of those who came to this part of Canada from Scotland\, and who for so long kept the Gaelic language alive. Sometimes the stories are about personalities\, sometimes about life-shaping events; some deal in the inexplicable. Together\, they reveal patterns of belief and living\, of social ties and decision-making that secure a special place for Cape Breton Island in its people’s hearts. \nAbout the HostCindy Campbell-Stone is a storyteller and event planner who has presented\, performed or hosted at many events\, concerts\, festivals and conferences. For ten years\, she co-hosted an open mic event\, twice a month\, for the Helen Creighton Folklore Society\, called WTF: What the Folk! She has hosted or chaired online events including the recent World Storytelling Day Concert for the Storytellers Circle of Halifax. Cindy has coached others in creating book reviews\, content for websites\, in giving storytelling workshops\, and in oral history collecting. She is interested in discussing different aspects of a story\, finding the story behind the story or discovering more about folks and the stories they hear or tell. \nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/1469145180195871/ URL:https://atlanticbooks.ca/events/storysave-listening-party-stories-of-cape-breton-by-jim-st-clair-2 LOCATION:Online Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://atlanticbooks.ca/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/69716_image_300208275_5839338169432249_7067496994363908493_n.jpg END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
