Come join the fun! Share your own amusing love story — maybe you’ll win the Fool’s Gold Medal of Love. To qualify to vote or present, just become a member of the audience at the Tale Tellers of St. Augustine event “Fools for Love” on Sunday, April 14, 2:00 pm at The Waterworks, 184 San Marco Ave., St. Augustine. Names will be drawn from a hat to choose who will tell their lighthearted or ridiculous tale of five minutes or less. The emcee will be Lou Novak, one of the newer “Tale Tellers” who is certainly not new to the stage or to being taken by love! For further information call 904-540-0402. Admission is $10.00; advance tickets and full guidelines are available at www.taletellers.org.

Lou Novak has been entertaining classmates since the first grade, church groups around campfires for years and coworkers to this very day. He has told at the MOTH, the Story District and the DC Liars Club. Tale Tellers Rose van der Berg, Kathy Duffy and Chris Kastle will warm up the crowd for your story!

Celebrate Earth Day by taking a short trip across St. Augustine’s harbor to the Lullaby of the Rivers Festival. This annual event takes place on Earth Day weekend in Vilano Beach at North Shores Park. The festival features Americana music by regional and local performers and an Earth Day Fair with food vendors and environmental exhibits. The festival makes getting into nature fun for everyone, with kid-friendly activities and an extraordinary lineup of performances.

The Lullaby of the Rivers Festival kicks off a year of experiential learning opportunities such as river expeditions, environmental fairs, and youth camps. The festival mission is to awaken and nurture our connection to the environment for future generations. We explore the link between the natural world and human well-being. Rivers are a universal element in human civilization. At the Lullaby of the Rivers Festival we teach people to learn their names, tell their stories, and keep them clean.
