Arts and Heritage Foundation St. Albert

Storytelling in the Garden

Instructor: Elsa Robinson

Ages: All

Location: Art Gallery of St. Albert

Saturday, March 15, 1–3 pm

On Saturday March 15, the Art Gallery of St. Albert welcomes everyone to The Garden for an afternoon of storytelling.  

The Garden is an inspiring and peaceful art exhibition created by Edmonton’s Elsa Robinson. The Garden is meant to be a gathering space, somewhere that people could meet and share stories.  

To mark the last day of this stunning exhibition, come gather in The Garden to hear a selection of stories from around the world. Elsa Robinson will be joined by Marty Chan and Tololwa Mollel to share traditional folk stories and more modern tales.  

The tales will start at 1 pm, and each storyteller will have a chance to share tales rooted in their own cultures, histories and imaginations. At the end, there will be an opportunity for audience members to ask questions, or to share some stories of their own.  

 

$0.00

What was your favourite part of the class?

"I enjoyed every aspect of the class, from the freedom to create projects to the support provided by Shirley during challenges, such as throwing items on the wheel."

JoanClass: Pottery Throwing Level 2

"We enjoyed the comfortable, welcoming atmosphere and received great instruction. Loved it!"

ColleenClass: Bead a Flower Pin

"I loved that Heather came around and asked each of us what we wanted to get out of that class. Then she did demos each class based on that."

VanessaClass: Pottery Throwing Level 2

"The program brought together an excellent group of people with different levels of treaty knowledge. I loved how Celina approached topics with openness and empathy. Her discussion of the generational impacts of residential schools was very moving. Additionally, her sharing of her family’s oral histories of negotiating and signing treaties was eye-opening."
