*This event is at the Jonesborough Library.* Experience world class storytelling brought to your library by the International Storytelling Center located in Jonesborough. This free performance is intended for school age kids and families, but all are welcome.

An Emmy award-winning storyteller and writer, Jim May’s stories are hilarious, touching, and filled with the many characters who populated the Illinois farming community where his family has lived since the 1840s. His story collection, The Farm on Nippersink Creek, won a best book award from the Public Librarian Association, and his book, Trail Guide for a Crooked Heart: Stories and Reflections for Life’s Journeys received a 2017 Storytelling World award.

May has shared his work throughout the U.S. and abroad, and is the recipient of the NSN ORACLE Circle of Excellence award.
