Wednesday, November 18, 2026 · 3:30 PM – 5:00 PM

Children's Program Room — 46 Broad St., Weymouth, MA

This program will use myths to teach the art of storytelling, guiding tweens to speak in their own voices! During this fun session, we'll help tweens overcome the fear of public speaking and recognize the importance of their voices. Participants will use drums, rattles, and costumes to develop their personal strengths and learn to speak confidently without letting worry get in the way. Join us in exploring the art of storytelling, with a special focus on Indigenous myths in honor of Native American Heritage Month!
