Traditional storyteller Nancy Binzen returns for another wildcrafted evening of folktale and myth from around the world–especially for adults. Free and open to the public. No registration required. Storytelling isn’t just for children. Traditional storyteller Nancy Binzen will narrate two tales: The Woman Who Became a Fox and The Handless Maiden. The Woman Who Became a Fox is a short Siberian tale. "Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?" asked poet Mary Oliver. From the steppes of Siberia, The Woman Who Became a Fox responds. The Handless Maiden is an old, old story map of the journey from innocence to wisdom and the courage and commitment required of anyone seeking to claim who they truly are. Today, more than ever, we need this map. Come join us on the journey. Nancy Binzen has a BA in Theatre Arts, a Certificate in Storytelling from Dominican University, and has studied with noted mythologist, Martin Shaw. She’s been telling traditional tales for 25 years and is a seasonal Vineyard Haven resident.
