2017 Saint Simons Storytelling Festival

Come out to hear some tall and maybe not-so-tall tales from four nationally renowned professional storytellers in a beautiful setting overlooking the water, underneath Spanish moss draped oaks. The “Dean of Storytelling” Donald Davis, Bill Lepp, the “Champion Liar of Tall Tales & Witty Stories” and Andy Offutt Irwin, that guy whose “inner kid” is really an “outer kid,” make a return visit to Epworth By the Sea’s annual Saint Simons Island Storytelling Festival. They will be joined this year by Lyn Ford, a fourth-generation, nationally recognized Affrilachian storyteller of “home-fried tales.” The festival takes place Saturday, February 18 through Monday, February 20 for a holiday weekend filled with laughter, legend, and lore shared by experts in the craft. Call today to reserve your seat in the audience. Registration rate for commuters is $100 per person and includes Sunday lunch and supper and entrance to all events. For more information, call 912.638.8688 or visit epworthbythesea.org.
