Song of the Selkie

From up and down the western coasts of Ireland and Scotland and from Iceland and the Faroe Island come tales of Selkies - sealwomen - those who can be both human on the land and seal in the sea.

The Selkie stories help us learn how women have had to shapeshift to fit into a man's world and what we need to belong, to feel at home in our skins.

Offered by Kay Houghton this story is a prelude to the Seasons of Womanhood program. This storytelling event is open to everyone regardless of gender.
