Tales of Women, Wise and Wondrous (Virtual)

For Women’s History Month, BPL is excited to present one of Sara deBeer’s most popular programs. Sara's style of storytelling and presentation is warm and personal. The stories she shares speak of the potential of women that we don't often see highlighted in traditional tales: their courage, intelligence, and wit. Sara selects these stories from her repertoire of international folktales featuring clever and resourceful women.

Sara has performed in libraries, senior centers, hospitals, parks, museums, classrooms, theaters, school auditoriums, and daycare centers. Along with being a featured artist at the Connecticut Storytelling Festival in New London, CT, the Three Apples Festival in Harvard, MA., and Hartford’s First Night, she is listed in the Connecticut Commission on Culture and Tourism’s Directory of Performing Artists, Connecticut’s directory of outstanding performing artists. She has worked with audiences of all ages and her goal is always to ensure that conversations occur in an environment of respect and trust.
