Story Salon East

At The East Hampton Library

Jan. 19, 2017

Star Staff

The East Hampton Library has launched Story Salon East, a weekly program based on Story Salon in Los Angeles, a live storytelling venue. Every Saturday morning at 11, seven people will each tell a tale of up to seven minutes in length, a format that brings to mind the popular PechaKucha series at the Parrish Art Museum.

They can be fact or fiction, serious or funny, autobiographical, read from the printed page, or told as if in conversation. There are no reviews, critiques, or judgments about either the content or the delivery. The idea is to share stories with a supportive audience. Steve Sobel, a retired dentist and stage manager from East Hampton, will host the programs. Interested storytellers can register by calling 631-324-0222, extension 3, or by visiting the library’s adult reference desk.
