Autumn Story Barn Shock! Tales of Horror, Joy and Surprise

Staged in a cabaret-like setting, Story Barn is a creative approach to oral history that puts a contemporary spin on good, old-fashioned storytelling. Storytellers will focus on events in their personal experience that produced emotions of horror, surprise or joy. The theme is in keeping with our fall exhibition’s theme, The New Spirit and the Cos Cob Art Colony: Before and After the Armory Show. The Armory show was an event notable for the display of "shocking” (at the time) works of European art that influenced countless American artists. Emceed by board member and comedian Bonnie Levison, the evening’s line up will be… guess what? A surprise!

What won’t be shocking is just how much you’ll love this program. Sit back, relax and get ready to hear amazing yarns spun by your friends and neighbors. If you haven’t attended a Story Barn, do yourself a favor and sign up now!
