The Golden Raven Storytelling Circle is very pleased to join with the Georges River Land Trust in celebrating the rhythm and flow of a River, we humans call the St. Georges. The land we live upon is where our hearts lie and through “it” passes our life’s blood. Given to us all to cherish and care for, as the River and her lakes have cared for us all down through time. Let us honor and celebrate with music and baked corn in husks: living stewards and ancestors seen and unseen by this liquid gift.

The public is invited.

Master storyteller, Roland Watier, will tell stories and myths probing the depth of a river that flows also in our minds.
