A lecture. A board meeting that’s open to the public. A genealogy workshop
if you’re lucky. Important, yes.
But engaging? Not necessarily.
Folks show up,
but they often aren't entertained.
What if
Adult Programs
were also
Entertaining?
AGE OLD LOVE STORIES
is the stress-free answer. Timeless folk tales
told with wit, warmth, and music —
a program patrons don’t just attend, they remember.

"An hour spent with Master Storyteller Paul Strickland
is an hour well spent, and one you should not miss."
- Cincinnati Enquirer
“Paul was very easy to work with, and held the audience captive with his animated storytelling. I would highly recommend Paul as a performer who can entertain the whole family!”
- Rachel Coffield, Sunbury Community Library – Ohio
"All these stories, told with clever verbal humor and the occasional song, end up with rather profound insights into human nature
delivered in a most amusing way."
- City Beat
We loved having you visit with us at the Calloway County Public Library! What an exceptional talent you are and we cannot wait
to have you visit again!

to historical stories (that just happened to have never happened.)

Paul has told stories everywhere from comedy clubs to schools, corporate events, and

Always adapting to his audience, Paul brings an unforgettable mix of humor, heart,
and imagination to every stage.
