Let's Travel the World storytelling resumes on October 13th with an afternoon of family-friendly songs and storytelling by David Gonzalez. David is a recipient of the Lifetime Achievement Award for Sustained Excellence from the International Performing Arts for Youth and a cultural ambassador for the U.S. State Department. He was also commissioned by Kennedy Center to create new work. For his visit to City of Asylum @ Alphabet City, David will be presenting Cuentos: Tales from the Latino World—a great introduction to the world of Latino literature and culture. Cuentos paints a vivid picture of the people and rich cultures of the Spanish-speaking world—with colorful tales from the Caribbean, South America, and the Bronx. From the antics of the Puerto Rican anti-hero "Juan Bobo" to a suite of Afro-Cuban stories, these tales are filled with memorable characters, fantastic plots and positive messages for children. Spanish language words are used throughout the stories and songs so that children can repeat and retain their sound and meaning. Children who received a passport booklet at a previous Let's Travel The World! program can bring these back to receive another collectible sticker! But it's never too late to collect stickers, so if this will be your first time at Let's Travel The World, be sure to ask for a passport and your first sticker. Each sticker in your passport earns discounts in City of Asylum Bookstore. |
