        As one of the "Traveling Tellers" supported by the Utah Arts Council last year, four of us enjoyed the hospitality of community members and public school administration, staff, and students. The Crescent Moon audience was fun to perform for and really appreciated the variety of stories we brought. The Old Barn (free!) is not to be missed. And I see that Campfire Storytelling and other enticements have been added to the schedule. This is a community event that shows great promise for growth year after year! Many thanks to Tom Carter and his many supporters for organizing and presenting this opportunity in Kanab! Collapse
