All About Anansi

Moved to West Roxbury Branch Library, 1961 Centre St, West Roxbury, MA 02132, due to BCYF Roslindale Community Center closure.

Join storyteller, Valerie Stephens, as we learn all about Anansi the spider, who was born among the Ashanti oral culture of the people of Ghana and became one of the more famous characters in folklore.
