October 21, 2019: Halloween Alert! Boulder Valley Spellbinders® will present “Unusual Harvests and Mysterious Happenings” for this month’s VIVA at the Library.
In keeping with the season – that slightly spooky time between the Equinox and the Solstice, where the daylight shrinks, the Earth begins its long winter’s slumber, and ghosts feel perfectly comfortable pestering the living – VIVA brings you a presentation of engrossing stories, shared by Boulder Valley Spellbinders ® with storytellers Jan Tafoya and Ann Cress.
Among the stories in the program are ‘Mary Culhane and the Dead Man’, ‘The Mischievous Girl and the Hideous Creature’, ‘The Stray Dog’, Grimm’s ‘The Turnip’ and ‘The Magic Pumpkins’. Children will be spellbound by ‘The Boy Who Drew Cats’ and ‘The Flying Head’.
