* Our November photo was taken in one of the back lanes in Newport
Well can you believe it! It's November and it's our final gathering for 2020.
It's time for a break but with a promise to return in February 2021
We still have a treat for you between now and Christmas. A small group of us have been beavering away on a six part series of stories and songs, harvested from pre-Covid storytelling events and recordings made by members of the Newport Fiddle and Folk Club. Watch this space!
In the meantime, please join us; we want to hear what you've been up to in the past month, listen to your stories, poems and patter.
- We ask that contributions be around the 6 minute mark.
- We've planned for an hour but if we're still enjoying ourselves and
wish to go over - we will.
- Musicians welcome; if you have patter or a story you wish to try out - we're all ears.
When
you arrive we'll spend a few minutes writing down names and
working out the
running order and this will be posted on the chat stream. Please if you
wish to tell a story, poem or simply share a work in progress, arrive
on time.

DONATIONS
Newport Storytellers
is a Newport Fiddle and Folk Club event. All the on-line sessions are
free, so the club has lost an income stream. If you can donate, there is
now a button on the front page of the website. It will take you to a PayMate payment form, the amount box blank, so people can fill in their own amount.
Stay safe, well and connected,
Jackie Kerin
Newport Storytellers coordinator
