Fair Folktales
Part of Fair Saturday 2024
(Sat 30 Nov: 12pm-5pm)
Join us on Fair Saturday, for a free drop-in session of traditional tales with storytellers Mark Borthwick and Sarah Wedderburn-Oglivy.
Suitable for all ages, these two expert storytellers will welcome anyone into their fairy circle for as many stories, myths, riddles, and wondertales as they would like.
Throughout the day, the Storytelling Centre is also offering free talks on Edinburgh Theatre History to celebrate the Edinburgh900 celebrations, and the storytellers have been given the magic key to the John Knox House museum, if anybody would like to take a peek.
As part of Fair Saturday we are partnering with the Falastin Film Festival to support their efforts to fund their 2025 Festival. You can support their work via their Go Fund Me campaign.

This event is part of Fair Saturday, a global mobilisation that aims to create a positive social impact every last Saturday of November, the day following Black Friday, the greatest expression of consumerism. Artists and cultural organisations from all over the world get together in a global festival of arts for change.
This event is free, drop-in and non-ticketed; just come along and enjoy.
