Finnriver Farm presents a World Apple Day event:
Taste, Temptation and Spells: Apples in Folktales, Fairytales and Myth
An evening with Storyteller Brian Rohr

Saturday, October 19th 5-7pm
$12.50 ticket includes stories, cocktails and apple pastries.

This October 19th, in honor of World Apple Day, Finnriver Farm presents Taste, Temptation and Spells: Apples in Folktales, Fairytales and Myth - an evening of stories by local Storyteller Brian Rohr.  In this performance, Rohr will explore the magic and mystery of the apple in the ancient tales.  Be it tempting the first people with profound wisdom or the dark magic sometimes embedded in its tasty flesh, this seemingly innocent fruit has a darker and more complex (and delightful) history then the Pink Lady will often let on upon first meeting.

Story will go from 5:30-6:30pm.  Please join us for cocktails and other apple delights, included in the entry price at 5pm before the stories start.  This is a 21 and over event.

The event is held in the Finnriver outdoor pavilion so dress for all weather and we suggest you bring coats, hats and blankets in case of cool weather.

The story-telling event is the culmination of a day of free activities on the farm for World Apple Day, including apple experts, orchard tours, games, art projects, music and country dancers.  The World Apple Day events are open to all ages from 11-4. Woodfire pizza, cider and wine will be available for purchase.  Note: The storytelling from 5-7 is for adults only and is a ticketed event to ensure seating.

About Brian Rohr:

Brian Rohr is a storyteller, writer, poet and healing arts practitioner who resides in the Pacific Northwest.  It was in 2007 when he met mythologist and master storyteller Daniel Deardorff whose artistry convinced him to give up the steady life as a Massage Therapist in Chicago and move to our small rural town of Port Townsend, WA to be mentored in the art and magic of performative mythology and storytelling.  

Since this time, Rohr has performed as a featured storyteller for national and international audiences, taught and performed at major conferences, high schools, universities and libraries, delighting listeners of all ages, including: the International Jewish Renewal Aleph Kallah in Redlands, CA; Northwest Folklife Festival in Seattle; Illinois State University; Trickster Tales Storytelling Festival in Washington State ; Vernon Area Library and Stevenson High School in Lincolnshire, IL and more.

Locally, Rohr is the creator and host of the monthly First Friday Storynight at BLTC, about to start its 5th year, and the annual Trickster Tales: A Night of Storytelling.

As a storyteller, Brian focuses on the old stories  the myths, folktales and fairy tales  from many different cultures, knowing that these old stories are alive, vital and can inform us on how to live our lives as authentic human beings, helping to make sense and meaning of the living world we are a part of.  
Brian was recently honored by JT News as a "10 Under 40" recipient for 2013 by being chosen as one of 10 Jewish people in Washington State under 40 years old who are doing particularly notable things within the community.

In 2012, Brian was honored by the National Storytelling Network by being selected as one of seven finalists for the prestigious J.J. Reneaux Emerging Artist Award in the storytelling community.

Brian is an active Board Member of the Mythsinger Foundation.  More can be found at: brianrohr.com
