Story By Story: Sharing the Human Experience
Public Access SACC TV-16 Sundays at 8:30 p.m. and Tuesdays at 1:00 p.m.
Joe Doolittle and
Kate Dudding
are hosting a weekly TV program about storytelling. This series features stories and storytellers from the region as well as upcoming events.
Starting on September 7, on the first Sunday of the month, a local storyteller will be featured, with this show being repeated on the second Sunday. On the third Sunday, a previously filmed live storytelling performance will be broadcast, with this show being repeated on the fourth Sunday.
Our October guest is
Fran Combs Berger
who shared her upbringing in Oklahoma where storytelling was a part of every day life as well as two stories.
Our September guest was
Marni Gillard who talked about discovering storytelling and using it to transform her middle school English classroom and students. She also shared a story with us.
Public Access SACC TV-16 will be broadcasting this program to all households in Schenectady County with cable TV. We hope to distribute this program to other public access cable channels in the Capital Region.
As a first step in this new collaboration, a benefit for both Story Circle at Proctors and SACC-TV was held at the end of May: Wine & Chocolate:
Stories of Decadence and Mirth.
Over 50 attendees enjoyed sampling estate wines from
Frontenac Point Vineyard and Winery of Trumansburg, NY and indulging in assorted cheeses and chocolate covered fruit.
Best of all, attendees heard stories of mirth and chocolate and decadence from
Joe Doolittle,
Kate Dudding,
Marni Gillard and
Jeannine Laverty of Story Circle at Proctors.
Over $700 was raised for Story by Story. Many thanks to those who made this benefit possible:
- Todd Wilson, Station Manager, SACC-TV
- All the Board Members of SACC-TV
- Our Storytellers
- Jim, Carol and Larry Doolittle of
Frontenac Point Vineyard and Winery
- Gay Doolittle of Woodhaven Designs
- Joseph J. Suhrada of Uncle Sam's Candy
