Storyteller Dave Del Rocco will share folktales from around the world, including Laos, Hawaii, Italy, Africa, the Philippines, and more. His stories are mostly funny and explain how different cultures view aspects of their world. Dave is a former Children’s Librarian with the Hawaii State Public Library System and has translated several children’s books into Hawaiian for the Department of Education’s immersion program. This 45-minute program is suitable for all ages. Young children must be accompanied by a parent or adult caregiver.

Sponsored by the Maui Friends of the Library. This is a production of the University of Hawaii at Manoa Outreach College’s Statewide Cultural Extension Program with additional funding and support provided by the National Endowment for the Arts, Hawaii State Foundation on Culture  and the Arts, and the University of Hawaii.
