Tellabration! is an annual world-wide storytelling event.  Every year on the Saturday before Thanksgiving storytellers gather in numerous places in many countries to spin their tales and listeners gather to appreciate this ancient art form.

In 2014 the town of Madison, Florida held its own event for the first time.  Local storyteller Wanda Violet pulled together the first local Tellabration! event and “B” O’Toole  of O’Toole’s Herb Farm provided the venue inside her Heartspace building.

She particularly enjoyed Mattie Ann Barnes and Abby Ratliff, both young local ladies who are beginners but who already “get” this storytelling business.
