Stories on the Square

We tell personal stories at The Square Pub on the Decatur Square on Wednesday from 5:15 until 7:00.  This happens every 2nd and 4th Wednesday. It’s like storytime for grown-ups with adult beverages available for purchase (dinner too if you would like), but best of all, no cover charge. Shannon McNeal, 404-626-4453, shannonmcneal@att.net

Toco Tellers

We meet at the TocoHill/Avis G. Williams Library. This is a beautiful building and we may find the Toco Tellers in the library for many events, telling their spooky stories, children’s stories and tales for everyone else! The library is located on McConnell Drive, off of Clairmont between North Druid Hills and the Veterans Administration Hospital. We meet on the first Thursday of each month from 10:00 until 12 noon.
