Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone.
A new community storytelling series called TellIt! Fayetteville will make its debut this weekend. The new event makes its first-ever performance at 6:30 p.m. Sunday night at Nightbird Books on Dickson Street.
The inaugural theme this month is “Love Gone Bad,” featuring stories and songs of love lost, forgotten, and tossed. Hosted by local storyteller Kathy McGregor (Prison Story Project) and Memphis folk musician Andy Cohen, this sounds like the place to be on Sunday if you’re looking to celebrate Anti-Valentine’s Day.
Tickets to Tellit! Fayetteville are $10 per person, and proceeds will benefit the local Prison Story Project.
There’s also quite a bit of music on Sunday night.
Melody Pond (formerly The Sisters Sweet) will perform at Maxine’s Tap Room, while Big Bad Gina is at George’s Majestic Lounge, and Cupid’s Bass, Liquid Dropz, and No.F^CES are at Ryleigh’s on Dickson.
