At the Kearney Area Storytelling Festival, professional storytellers—along with area tellers—present the art of storytelling in many area venues.

On February 8 at the Kearney Country Club, Geraldine Buckley and Don White will present “Stories for Adults”. Non-members are welcome to order food & drinks from the menu before & after the show.

Geraldine Buckley, known for her wit, warmth and humor, is an internationally known and award-winning storyteller and educator. With 30 years of experience, she shares folk tales and Greek myths, mainly in schools, and conducts storytelling and creative/meditative workshops. She performs true stories based on her own globe-trotting adventures at festivals, schools, theatres, house-concerts, prisons and conferences, and performs her
educational storytelling show “Tea In The Slammer” in criminal justice departments of universities and other settings.

There is no one-word description for what Don White does. He’s an award-winning singer/songwriter, comedian, author and storyteller. He’s been bringing audiences to laughter and tears for over thirty years, released ten CDs, three live DVDs, and two books, Memoirs of a C Student and The Hitchhiking Years. In 2011, he won the Jerry Christen Memorial Award, given out by Boston Area Coffeehouse Association, for his work with the community and that same year was given a key to the city in his hometown of Lynn, Massachusetts.
