Corn Island Storytelling Festival

Remember the old days? Sitting around a campfire, telling frightening tales? It’s time to bring that back. Gather ‘round the 200-year-old-ish barn at Blackacre (better than a fire, right), and listen to five storytellers spin their yarn, including Thomas Freese, who will share from his book, “Ghosts, Spirits and Angels: True Tales From Kentucky and Beyond.”

SATURDAY, OCT. 20
