The Mount Hope Farmers Market is proud and excited to welcome nationally acclaimed storyteller Len Cabral. From his home base in Providence, Len has been enchanting audiences with his storytelling performances at schools, libraries, museums and festivals since 1976. A great grandson of a Cape Verdean whaler whose grandparents immigrated to America from the islands off the coast of West Africa, Len's strong Cape Verdean ancestry comes alive in his exuberant retelling of African, Cape Verdean, and Caribbean folktales as well as original stories and tales from around the world. Admission is FREE and this is an event for all children, young and old!
Malian Drummer Sidy Maiga will also be performing at the market throughout the morning--kids and adults, bring your percussion instruments from home to join in the fun!
(If the weather is not-so-fair we will be indoors in the barn, so come out rain-or-shine!)
