About this Event
Join us for an evening of Water Folk Tales: Mermaids, Selkies and Swan Girls with local professional illustrator and storyteller, Peter Stevenson.
'Folk tales flow around the world like streams of thought, filling footprints with the history of cultures that have been uprooted, seabeds scoured and villages drowned, but never forgotten. Follow the tides out from Welsh waters, where all these stories begin, into the vast ocean. Here be sea monsters and swan girls, displaced people and rain-makers, toilet demons and talking catfish - so come on in, the water's fine.'
Peter Stevenson, organiser of Aberystwyth Storytelling Festival, performs widely at festivals and events and he has curated many exhibitions based on the tales he tells. He has produced books internationally for publishers such as Ladybird and Hodder & Stoughton.
