Please come share in an evening of music and stories at the Pioneer Valley
Folklore Society Song & Story Swap.

Amherst, Mass.
The evening's featured performer will be storyteller and musician John
Porcino.
A storytelling class in the fall of 1980 paved the way for John Porcino to
choose the life of a professional storyteller-musician. Thousands of
performances and workshops later his love of the simple art continues to
deepen.
His performances are a mix of stories and songs that are sparked to life
with warmth, humor, a playful touch of audience participation, and a twist
of music from around the world.
He is is co-editor of the award winning book Spinning Tales: Weaving Hope,
author of feature articles in Family Fun magazine, and a contributor to the
books The Healing Heart and Joining In. A compilation of his stories may be
found on the recording, A Heck of a Way to Stay Warm.
John Porcino now celebrates more than 35 years of storytelling and musical
performance. Don't miss this opportunity to hear one of the finest
raconteur's around.
