“Unsung Heroes” Storytelling with Gideon For-mukwai

GideonFor-mukwai(seasidelibrary.org)The art and tradition of storytelling has been a key element throughout history. But in our busy, digital, electronic, age the practice often has fallen by the wayside.

Gideon For-mukwai knows that everyone loves a great story and everyone has a great story.  The “Unsung Heroes Program” allows folks to regale and reminisce about momentous things that have happened in their lives as well as the small everyday occurrences that make our world such an interesting place. Gideon will tell some of his own stories and provide the opportunity for the audience to participate with accounts of their own.  For-mukwai believes that there is a rebirth of storytelling as a critical element of education, community building, and entertainment.

Gideon For-mukwai is an award-winning speaker, author, and trainer.  He holds a Master’s Degree in Journalism from the Reynolds School of Journalism, at the University of Nevada.

This event will take place in the Community Room and there will be book sales and signings.
