Our second Afternoon of Moth-Style Storytelling on Sunday, November 2, 3 –5:00 PM at Shir Tikvah
Back, by popular demand, a Moth Radio Hour style of story-telling. Please join us for an afternoon of story-telling, snacks, wine, and visiting with the Wisenheimers. We invite you to be part of the entertainment for our evening by sharing your brief, funny, sad, poignant, inspiring, or moving stories (bonus points if your story has a Jewish theme).
Stories must be no more than five minutes in length and you can submit your completed story to Jeff Zuckerman @ zucke21@gmail.com. Similar to the previous gathering, there's a limit to the number of stories that we're able to accept. You will be notified as to the status of your story -- whether it's accepted to be presented, or not. Stories must be submitted no later than October 3rd.
