A Winter’s Weaving: storytelling for Christmas time

Friday, December 13, 2019 @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm

£10

“The drop of the spindle , the whir of the wheel, the step of the treadle, the click of the needles in the night…”

… a word quilt woven with the stories of goddesses, folk tales and ghostly tales – old stories told by the fire on a cold winter’s night.

Join us at Tudor House as we welcome back our popular storytellers for an evening of magical and shivery tales for Christmas. Last year’s event was sold out, so don’t miss out this year!

The Storytellers are:

PYN STOCKMAN
