From the time I was a young girl, I always loved to listen to stories. In fact, my writing career began with storytelling. Now, in Toronto, a group of tellers have gathered to revive Jewish storytelling. Here are the details:

What: Jewish stories encompass a wide variety of subjects–Bible, Talmud, folktales, historical, literary, Holocaust, personal anecdotes, jokes, humour, and so much more! The only rule is that reading is not allowed.

When: the 3rd Sunday of every month, 7.30 – 9.30 p.m.

Where: Congregation Habonim, 5 Glen Park Ave., Toronto (near Bathurst Street and Glencairn Ave.), accessible building, ample free parking, close to transit

Cost: $5 or PWYC

Who: Everyone is welcome–tellers and listeners all.

What else: Refreshments will be available.
