Storytelling

VALGA COUNTY LOCAL CULTURE EVENTS FOR YOUTH

Stories and songs were an inseparable part of everyday life. But what were they about, why were they important, and are they still important today? Polina Tšerkassova, an anthropologist, musician, and storyteller of Russian origin, will talk about this and more. She weaves together stories from different cultures with her own music, which she performs on all kinds of rare musical instruments.

Venue: Säde Park. FREE.
