Friday 8th July 11am – ‘Better than Nothing?’ Casglu/Village Storytelling Festival Since the first lockdown, Beyond the Border has been gathering storytellers for a Friday morning “coffee and chat”. Casglu brings together tellers of all experience levels, interests and skillsets to meet, connect, discuss the craft of storytelling and challenge their thinking. Today’s topic: digital and online storytelling. Was it just better than nothing when we couldn’t work in-person? Or do we still have much to gain and learn from its potential? With provocations from Daniel Serridge, Tim Ralphs and Amy Douglas. For more info click here
