From the Indiana Department of Natural Resources:

Join the Friends of Indiana Dunes and Northwest Indiana Storytelling Guild for world-class storytelling on Oct. 12 as they celebrate fall at Indiana Dunes State Park.

The 24th annual Northwest Indiana Storytellers Festival will stretch imaginations all day at the nature center.

Sessions will focus on different storytelling themes, including an open microphone time slot. Saturday night will also include a time for ghost stories, with a session for young children at 5:30 p.m. and a session for older children and adults at 7 p.m. The ghost stories will take place in Wilson Shelter.

All activities are free after the standard gate fee of $5 per in-state vehicle and $10 per out-of-state vehicle. Program support is made possible by the Friends of Indiana Dunes group. For more information, call (219) 926-1390.
