# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Summer Storytelling Series: Lambs
- **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 10 Aug, 2026 at 06:30 pm (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: The Maine Irish Heritage Center is bringing the cherished Irish tradition of storytelling back to Maine this summer!

In days gone by neighbors would gather at night in the local ceili house, the home of a storyteller. They came for conversation, and to hear stories of their community, its history, old tales handed down by the ancestors, some music. These gatherings helped build community and preserve the culture and values of the Irish people.

We invite you to join us this summer at one of our storytelling events! Bring a story, a poem, a song, or simply come to listen and enjoy an evening among friends—or friends-in-the-making.
But wait, “Does my story/poem/song have to be Irish?” Absolutely not!  These events are celebrations of the oral tradition of every culture, and we would love to hear anything you want to tell!
