Professional Storyteller Cathy Spagnoli will Bring Korean Folktales to Your Students at No Cost
March 5, 6, 7, 10 and 11, 2008

Each year, The Korea Society's School Visit Program sponsors authors, musicians, storytellers and other creative professionals to conduct workshops on Korea-related subjects at schools throughout the tri-state area. In 2008, The Korea Society is presenting Cathy Spagnoli, professional storyteller, who will share the folktales of Korea with New York students on March 5, 6, 7, 10 and 11, 2008.

Applications for the program-which will bring Cathy Spagnoli and the magic of Korean folklore to your classroom at no cost to your school- are being taken right now. The format of Spagnoli's programs can be scaled to fi t your needs: from small groups to assembly sized meetings.

Korean folktales are filled with exciting age-appropriate stories of heroes, tricksters, animals and ghosts that can help your students understand the history and culture of Asia. Cathy Spagnoli brings the stories alive with her animated narrative style. Having traveled throughout Korea, and produced a two volume educational recording, Tales of Korea, Spagnoli spins tales that simultaneously enthrall and educate.
