Winnipeg International Storytelling Festival On The Path to Peace
The Arthur V. Mauro Centre for Peace and Justice, at St. Paul’s College is hosting the 6th Annual Winnipeg International Storytelling Festival. Occurring from May 11 – 14, 2011 the Festival is the largest of its kind in Canada and the only Festival dedicated to storytelling and peacebuilding.
Designed to be part of the peacebuilding process and to encourage the building of communities the Festival plays a critical role in advancing global citizenship, promoting the protection of human rights along with nurturing the art of storytelling.
Honourary Chair of this year's festival is Hannah Taylor, founder of The Ladybug Foundation.
Featured tellers are found locally in Manitoba while others have traveled to Winnipeg from across Canada and from other parts of the world; including Ireland’s Liz Weir.
A few years ago I had the opportunity to meet Liz. She is brilliant.
The public events are free to attend and for more information head over to the University of Manitoba’s Website ( Storytelling Festival ).

The Connection of Sesame Street
For more than a quarter century Sesame Street has linked children together around the world. This program informs and teaches kids about popular culture, the alphabet, numbers, and basic human values through fun and quirky stories.
When a friend of mine immigrated to Canada, she learned how to speak English by watching the program. The Count is still her favorite, a one, a two, a three... ah ah haaa!
Recently I came across the parody of the Old Spice Commercial as posted on YouTube and it reminded me of the importance of programs like Sesame Street on our collective experience and how it still keeps generation after generation connected.
Enjoy!
