in Mariposa & Yosemite National Park
Friday, Saturday and Sunday, March 13, 14, & 15, 2015
Turn your back on the real world and venture into the unknown with storyteller Sarah Saulter who will join the lineup of performers at the Mariposa County Arts Council Storytelling Festival March 13-15. The magic in Sarah's storytelling will give you a feeling of being lost in another time or place. Her fanciful characters come vividly to life as she casts her spell with tales of strong women and tricksters, magical beings and wise fools.
A professional storyteller for over 20 years, Saulter grew up in the woods of the Pacific Northwest, making up stories, climbing trees and making friends with the local wildlife. She told her first original story at the age of three and has continued telling tales ever since. Sarah has held diverse day jobs. She's worked as a house painter, directed high school musicals, and sold flowers from a rustic cart on a street corner. Currently she works as a librarian at a community college.
As a member of the Healing Arts Staff at Rady Children's Hospital, she told stories to patients and their families. She has appeared at The Exchange at the National Storytelling Festival in Jonesborough, TN, and at local and regional festivals, colleges and universities.
Plan to hear Sarah and five other nationally known storytellers during the weekend of March 13-15.
