Muhlenberg County Public Libraries is proud to present for the Kentucky Storytelling Association's first regional Youth Storytelling Showcase at the Glema Mahr Center for the Arts at Madisonville Community College, four outstanding youth who jumped in with both feet and did an excellent job at our first ever youth teller festival on Aug. 17. Middle School student Brooke Pleasant, High School student Emilee Seaman, and Tandem Team Jordin and Jonathan Pleasant will compete for a chance to have their story's video in the statewide elimination for possible appearance at the National Youth Storytelling Showcase in Pigeon Forge, TN.
Also at our youth event on August 17, was Greenville Elementary student Katie Beth Dorris , who will represent the county at the elementary level. She gave a demonstration of her story for the audience of family and friends at the library that Friday night and will compete in Madisonville today. Best wishes to all.
This is a wonderful opportunity for practicing a family skill usually handed down in families. The fast food generation can still be awesome tellers if they listen to their elders before it is too
late to learn their stories.
Check back here for results later today!
