Folktales and Urban Legends

There’s nothing like telling stories around a summer campfire, especially in the library. Hear folktales, urban legends and other stories from Dallas Storytelling Guild tellers; freelance writer and podcaster Mary Jacobs, author of Haunted Plano, Texas; and researcher Jerry Hestand, author of Hunting Apes in America: My Life as a Bigfoot Hunter. Learn about how stories play a role in culture and history. 

This program is part of Summer Saturdays at Central and is made possible by the generous support of the Friends of the Dallas Public Library.
