Fabulous day today (26 September) with storyteller/author and illustrator Peter Stevenson. Peter told stories from the Mabinogion using a Crankie. The children from Narberth CP School had the chance to create their own Crankie out of matchboxes and tell their own story, based around transformation. It was wonderful to see so much imagination and creativity inspired by stories. And Crankies are just glorious!

The afternoon session saw Peter telling stories to adults and this gave a fascinating insight into the storytelling world. The story of Henry Box Brown told through a Crankie was totally inspiring.

We would love to get Peter back for another session, in the not too distant future. This event was funded by Welsh Government through the Welsh Museums Federation.
