An Evening of Storytelling

Rescheduled with Ofelia Rivas!!

Leslie Marmon Silko wrote, “When I say ‘storytelling,’ I don’t just mean sitting down and telling a once-upon-a time kind of story. I mean a whole way of seeing yourself, the people around you, your life, the place of your life in the bigger context, not just in terms of nature and location, but in terms of what has gone on before, what’s happened to other people. So it’s a whole way of being.”

Last Spring Ofelia Rivas shared concepts, beliefs and stories that form the foundation of her O’odham Native American tradition; a worldview grounded in a deep  relationship with Nature, a spirituality that recognizes the sacredness of all being.

This time Ofelia will share her story of Rain, other traditional stories and her experiences as a storyteller.
Bob Toth and John Briggs will moderate the gathering.
