Join storyteller Diane Edgecomb for an hour of stories titled "Oceans of Fun," Tuesday, August 20, at 3 PM at Province Lands Visitor Center in Provincetown, and at 7 PM at Salt Pond Visitor Center in Eastham. Diane will share favorite family tales about water-time adventures including her original story What Now, Cloacina!? a humorous participatory tale about water conservation and all the simple things that we can do to help. Programs are free of charge and accessible. The performances are funded by the Friends of the Cape Cod National Seashore. One of New England's favorite entertainers, Diane's high-energy performances inspire us to look with fresh eyes at the natural world. A nature-oriented storyteller for over twenty years, her innovative programs range from original conservation tales for families with topics like recycling, water conservation, rainforests and habitat protection, to seasonal and solstice performances for adults accompanied by Celtic harp. A featured storyteller on NPR and winner of the national ORACLE award for storytelling excellence in the Northeast, Diane is known for transforming into the characters in her tales.
