Niagara Celtic's Great Storytellers
One weekend, One-Thousand Stories
A great legacy of the Celts is their ability to bring to life the past, present and other magical realms! Niagara Celtic ensures numerous chances to hear stories of all kinds. Sit for a spell with The Bard of Basswood or Viking Hersir Torvaldr Torgason and you'll discover tales as you've never heard before. Step up to the Celtic Arts Stage for stories from our visiting Shanacies (spelling varies). You can even follow the Bards of Bruery...traveling minstrels who sing you tales of their own~ just be sure to thank them (beer is accepted). |
Interested in joining our volunteer family?

Sample Joke
From niagaraceltic.com's wisdom page
While visiting Old Tam, who sat in the hospital, the minister noticed he had a bowl of almonds.
"My brother gave me those, but I don't like them, you can have them," said Old Tam.
The minister thanked him and began eating them. Then he said, "Why would your brother give you something you don't like?"
To which Old Tam replied "Well they originally had chocolate on them..."
